The single use straw in your coctail or coffee will be on the planet forever. It take 200 years to break down.....into tiny toxic particles. The US and UK toss nearly 500 million plastic straws PER DAY. Very little is recycled, and much ends up in the ocean. A healthy ocean provides resilience to climate change.
PAPER STRAWS are these the answer.
