The earth desperately needs to switch from plastic disposables to eco-friendly options made from sugarcane bagasse. The World Economic Forum estimates that about 150 million tons of plastic in different forms are in the world's seas.
The trouble posed by plastic straws to the environment and marine life contributes to the destruction of irreplaceable ecosystems, coral reefs, and marine habitats.
It's time to prod people and encourage them to make a healthier choice. Using biodegradable, compostable, food-grade crockery, cutlery, and straws is a move of the future and one that people need to adapt to soon if they wish to leave behind a healthy and recovering earth for generations to come. Just a very small switch from plastic straws will ensure significant and positive changes for the environment, especially marine and other ocean life.
