Having your own reusable straw might not seem to do much at first. However, in the effort to be environmentally friendly, it can go a long way to help conserve the number of plastic straws that you use.
Recently, McDonald’s Malaysia joined an increasing band of restaurants to curb plastic straw usage by stating that from August 1, 2018 onwards, straws will only be available upon request. It is undeniable that this might be an inconvenience, especially when there are individuals who do require straws to make drinking easier.
However, it also becomes alarming when we realise that a plastic straw can take up to 200 years to decompose. And until they do, they are a constant hazard to marine animals.
So what do we do to balance this out? Here are some reusable straws that you can get instead!
