The only straw you’re allowed to drink from is your MD’s

 

Layne Staley

"Gay bamboo straws" is not a phrase I thought I'd read today, or ever.

Yeah, most bamboo straws are straight.

"If you always put limits on everything you do, physical or anything else, it will spread into your work and into your life. There are no limits. There are only plateaus, and you must not stay there, you must go beyond them." - Bruce Lee
 

I'll assume this is a serious question. Straws are not even a twentieth of a percent of the plastic waste in our oceans - the majority is from fishing nets, so if you care then reduce/eliminate your seafood consumption, but nobody cares if you're drinking from a plastic straw.

 

Even if every single person suddenly stopped using plastic straws, we'd be looking at eliminating literally somewhere around .025% of all plastic waste in the ocean. That's hardly a "fix" to the problem. Fishing nets are estimated to be an upwards of 45% (at least) of ocean pollution. Using paper or reusable metal straws is fine (and I do wherever possible) but it's never going to fix anything and most people who do it are either just virtue signaling or falsely convincing themselves that they're making a difference in my opinion. Like I said, if you care then reduce or eliminate your seafood consumption. It's really not as hard as you might think
