No more straws

What’s the problem?


Plastic straws are a big problem right now, most people use at least one straw a day, and then that straw gets tossed in the trash.  But where do those straws end up.  Straws are very light so instead ending up where they’re supposed to, they can end up in the ocean, the beach or some where else in the environment.  Animals often think they are food and choke on them, and they can also  get stuck up sea turtles nostrils.


What can you do to help?

Start by not using straws, when you order a drink just ask for no straw and when you do need a straw use a silicone or metal one!  You can try and get family and friends to do the same.

Below is a picture of a silicone straw.  

                                                             
                                                           






That’s all I have for now but I will post more on this subject later.
