A Film in the works about Plastic Straws

Are you aware of how many plastic straws are used in a day?  Or how they affect the environment?  Have you ever seen what happens when sea creatures get plastic stuck on them or in them?  There is a documentary that is in the works at the moment that tells you a little bit about those things and more.

STRAWS: a documentary film for a sea of change

By Linda Booker

We are really excited about this film.  It seems as though some people have no clue about how many plastic straws are used in a day.  We have been asked many times “What’s so bad about plastic straws?” and when we tell them how many are used in a day and really draw a picture of what that looks like they then say “Wow…I had no idea.  That is a problem.”  This film is really important for the awareness of plastic straw pollution.

We are very happy to say that we are a proud supporter of this film.  We donated some of our Elegant Curves glass straws as well as our Sea Turtle Love glass straws.  The Sea Turtle Love glass straw was created for some backers of the Kickstarter for the film.  If you haven’t checked out the Kickstarter campaign here is the link STRAWS Kickstarter Campaign.   Check the link out and if you can donate.  There are some really cool rewards when you donate.

Much love to you all!  We hope that your summer adventures are treating you well and that you help reduce the plastic straw pollution by saying “No thank you” to those plastic straws.  Bring your own straw!  Glass, steel or bamboo straws are all better than plastic.
