After successfully banning plastic bags, officials around the world are turning their attention to something we are all guilty of using for only a few minutes and disposing of without a second thought – plastic straws. According to ecostraw.org, over 500 million polymer straws, enough to fill 127 school buses, are used just in the US each day! Too small to recycle, they choke sea creatures, clog our coral reefs, and eventually disintegrate into tiny microbeads, which enter our food chain through fish. This means that every single straw ever produced in the world still exists in some form today. Now, thanks to social media campaigns such as #TheLastStraw and #TheFinal Straw, the urgency to ban plastic straws is finally gaining momentum.
