We give back 10% of profits from each sale to charity. Plastic in our environment: A recent report by the World Economic Forum projects that by the year 2050, the plastic in our oceans will outweigh the fish! An estimated 7.5% of plastic in the environment comes from straws and stirrers according to analysis from a group of nonprofits called Better Alternatives Now. Plastic straws aren’t just bad for the environment - they can be bad for your body: Most single-use plastic straws are made from Polypropylene, commonly made from petroleum. While considered food-safe in amounts approved by the Food and Drug Administration, there is evidence that chemicals from polypropylene can leach into liquids and may release compounds that could affect estrogen levels, especially when exposed to heat, acidic beverages or UV light. Degraded plastics are ingested by marine wildlife, making their way up the food chain and possibly ending up on the dinner table. So not only can plastics harm animals (think about a sea turtle with a straw up its nostril) but bits of them and the toxic chemicals within, may hurt us all. Plastics are here, like it or not … chemicals from plastic manufacturing now show up in our urine, blood and cells. Let’s do our bit to get rid of disposable straws: Seattle is the latest city to join at least a dozen others across the United States in banning plastic straws McDonalds in the UK have discontinued use of straws and the UK Government are now considering a countrywide ban KFC in Singapore have also served their final straws
