Waste

Skip the Straw

Plastic bags and small plastic pieces like straws are most likely to get swept into our waterways. I will keep 2 plastic straw(s) out of the landfill and ocean each day by refusing straws or using my own glass/metal straw.

    The challenge I have chosen is reducing my use of plastic straws. I have been doing well. I never really thought about my use of plastic straws but I have found that it can be simple to avoid them. Sometimes it can be somewhat inconvenient but overall I think it's definitely worth the challenge. I think it's interesting how overlooked our use of plastic straws are, the fix is simple, stop using them. But I feel like it can be hard to make that switch if your not constantly thinking about it.

      good work. And if you get to-go drinks, you could take the next step of brining a reusable cup.
