I wrote a blog post in February of 2008 warning that Plastic Straws were an Environmental Abomination. https://simonburrow.com/?p=604
Straws in Water
My opinion about straws and other environmental issues has evolved since then. Because of the video of the turtle and the straw being anti-straw has suddenly become popular. It is a great way of virtue signaling your love of the environment.
In the next post I’ll rank straws as an environmental danger compared to leisure travel, driving or swimming pools.
