Skip the Straw

Plastic bags and small plastic pieces like straws are most likely to get swept into our waterways. I will keep 1 plastic straw(s) out of the landfill and ocean each day by refusing straws or using my own glass/metal straw.

    I skip the straw when possible, and if not possible, I take them home to wash and reuse them.

    I keep my reusable grocery bags in the trunk of the car so I have them available at the store.
