I have guests at my job that ask for straws only to stir their drink and set aside. LITERALLY single-use. It's hard for humans to break habits, they need to be guided in new directions.
Couldn't agree more about taking the proactive approach. Particularly with the straw. Bringing your own cup to most restaurants, however, puts them in a challenging place with regard to food handling issues - but declining the straw is as easy falling off a log. As is using your own durable cutlery at a location that offers single use plastics. Put your proactivity where your mouth is... (literally ;)
