🥤 Plastic Free July Daily Tip 🥤

Skip the straw when you can.

One simple habit can make a difference. If you do not need a straw, try going without one when ordering a drink.

It is a quick and easy way to reduce single use plastic, especially when done consistently over time.

Small swaps can make a big difference.

Are straws something you have already cut back on?
