One thing that @dw_innovation needs to remark is that it never was about #PlasticStraws!

  • Compared to all the #Billionaires destroying the envoirment (see @elonjet ) I'm shure noone can consume so many #straws to even come close even if they literally single-use them every time they take a sip from a drink.

We'd save the world faster and more effectively by #BanBilliomaires and seizing all assets around the globe exceeding €99M because at that level of #wealth it's generating so much #RoboWealth that one can't spend it unless one were to literally want to waste it all!

I already talked about that tho...

Are plastic straws really so bad for the environment?

The US government has scrapped paper straws to go back to plastic. So why are the plastic variety restricted in many countries around the world in the first place?

On this day in history, plastic straws were liberated in the United States of America, …. Oh, and more tariffs, eh.

Oh, America (The Crypto-Republic of Plastic Straws), what have U done?

Donald Trump has his finger on the pulse of the American people! Always prioritizing what's most important.

Someone has microplastics in his brain.

@MatWright Pretty sure you’re right. But still. Are we so easily bought & sold? Will plastic straws & forks be what decides this election?
Meanwhile, BC Greens’ Furstenau talks about public transit & carbon tax & healthcare in what I consider meaningful ways.
ps. I have a couple of reusable straws & a drawer full of forks, so I *think* I’m immune to this clever politicking by Rustad & Co. (Will Eby flip-flop on straws & forks too?) #bcelxn2024 #bcpoli #plasticstraws #redherrings

I told my mum that plastic straws were hurting the planet, so I needed to make a change. She laughed, went away for a bit, and then returned with this glass straw that she had kept since she was a child.

My mind is officially blown. The things that we have today are all lies that none of us needs.

#PaperStraws are a different kind of awful on the planet compared to #PlasticStraws. They're both terrible on our #environment.
I would absolutely recommend #SteelStraws as they are infinitely reusable.

Yeah they're not comfortable for hot drinks, but I think that's an issue we should look into fixing about them, instead of avoiding them.
