Oceans

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 3 plastic straw(s) of out of the ocean each day.

While I have actually been using straws a lot, I will commit to always washing them and reusing them so I never have to throw them out and I don't exceed more than two straws always.
