Say No to Plastic Straws

An estimated 71% of seabirds and 30% of turtles have been found with plastics in their stomachs. When marine wildlife ingest plastic, they have a 50% mortality rate. By asking for no straw when placing a drink order, I will keep 4 plastic straw(s) of out of the ocean each day.

REFLECTION QUESTION
Oceans

What single-use items (e.g. straws, coffee cups, vegetable bags, plastic bags) do you regularly use? What could be substituted instead?

Almost everyday I use reusable items, instead of using and tossing plastic straws I use reusable ones when I get drinks, I don't drink bottled water instead I use my Brita to refill my reusable bottle, I drink my coffee from a mug every day and if I have to go out I use a reusable metal to go cup to keep it hot and not waste any resources, also when shopping I use reusable paper bags instead go wasting plastic bags from the stores.
