FACTS. LITERAL FACTS.

Yes metal straws

She was in my class, and she was NOTHING like this at allll

Who cares about plastic.

@@qwertyuioplkmjnhbgvfcdxsza I do care about plastic.

Haven’t had a straw since :)

@@drrush3421 nice

@@drrush3421 have you kept up the streak?

She should shut up. The alternative paper straws are worse

@@LolLol-ne9yw Why is it worse? Can you explain?

Dude silicone is flimsy and you can order it bent, and because of the soft texture and bendableness, it is even safer for them to use. So yes, there is an ecofriendly alternative.

Drinking a hot drink with a straw

@@alyssashoemaker3414 Many disabled people lack the dexterity to truly get silicone straws clean.

Turns out paper straws have toxic chemicals like perfluoroalkyl and polyluoroalkyl(PFAS) in them that cause like 30 different health issues including lower birth weight, thyroid disease, increased cholesterol levels, liver damage, kidney cancer, and testicular cancer and lowers testosterone levels. Isn't that wonderful.

Some people like the other straws. What is more important, your want or helping sealife live?

save the turtles.

What the turtles do for you at least straws have a purpose

1000000

But we are the ones who MAKE th straws so technically it both

JimmyD683 yep

True

She was in my class, like seriously she was.

Jaden Ro like what if they just completely just stoped making plastic then that would solve 95% of the plastic problem

This girl does not have a point. Sure, less plastic in the ocean will help, but it’s a very very low impact compared to what’s really going on here. taiji and bluefin definitely paid off this presentation. “Put a child on there and mention the single time a straw in a turtle’s nose”. Lies and deceptions playing off you’re emotions. Try seeing the video of like 5 sea turtles in a fishing net they ended up killing for greed. That’s just one net too. She says “wrapped around the earth 4 times” try 500 times around a day with fishing nets. Think about that the next time you eat fish.

It is a start. So yeah… and if we never START the how can we finish?

NO, 50 TO 80 YEARS IS TRUE NOT 500 MIL YEARS

ye

huh

i agree

This is so out of context and that's why I love it lmao

1984 soon you will ban people from having children like china in their one child per family law!

Whole not hole. I bought some aluminium straws recently but you must clean them after each use.

whole not hole lol

Who gives if the data is on point? The real point is that plastic is harming our environment, and it's a simple change to save many species.

you eat pelicans? lmao

1984 soon food will be rationed. leftists solution is to ban? what has happened? 1984
