An estimated 71% of seabirds and 30% of turtles have been found with plastics in their stomachs. When they ingest plastic, marine life has a 50% mortality rate. By asking for no straw when placing a drink order, I will keep 6 plastic straw(s) of out of the ocean each day.

I will eat all of my meals without distractions, e.g., phone, computer, TV, or newspaper.

I will spend 15 minutes each day maintaining a record of all my purchases and learning about my spending habits.
