Plastic Straws – The harm that they do!

The planet desperately needs to switch from plastic straws to more eco-friendly options. According to the World Economic Forum estimates there are about 150 million tons of plastic in different forms in the world’s seas. The threat posed by plastic straws to the environment and marine life, contribute to the destruction of irreplaceable ecosystems, coral reefs, and the marine habitat.

It is time to prod people and encourage them to make a healthier choice. Using biodegradable, compostable, food-grade crockery cutlery and straws is a move of the future and one that people need to adapt to soon if they wish to leave behind a healthy and recovering planet for generation next. Just a very small switch from plastic straws will ensure significant and positive changes for the environment especially marine and other sea life.
