Every day 500,000,000 plastic straws are used and thrown away everyday in the U.S alone.
Ocean Conservancy ranks straws as the #5 most found litter item on beaches. They're non-recyclable, so they wind up in landfills, litter streets and add to the estimated 8.5 million metric tons of plastic debris in oceans annually.

TAKE ACTION
1: Make a personal commitment to say "no" to plastic straws. Whenever ordering a drink, politely request “no straw, please.” Encourage your friends and family to take the pledge, too!
You've got more power than you think. Want to take your impact even further? Use your own paper, glass, bamboo, or stainless steel straw instead, and start a conversation.
2: Reach out to some local eateries in your neighborhood or town and ask them to change their protocol to only serve straws upon request. Offer the Atelier Aquatic Sticker
3: Encourage those eateries to make a change to non-plastic straw options – like paper, glass, or stainless steel, bamboo– if diners do request a straw.
