Did you know that a million pounds are equal to 1,087,124,690 straws? Each day Americans use 500 million plastic straws. That means in just over 2 days, Americans are using over a million pounds of single-use plastic straws. Single-use plastic straws often end up in the ocean and on coastlines because they're not able to be recycled. By switching to reusable straws or refusing them all together, we can keep the number of straws in that make it to the ocean from increasing. #4Ocean #BanTheStraw #RefuseStraws
