FINALSTRAW

REUSABLE AND PLASTIC-FREE

Plastic straws may seem inconsequential given their disposable nature, but they are a major source of plastic pollution as they are generally used only once for about one hour and then take 450 years to decompose; in the US, approximately 500 million straws are used each day. Luckily, there are many alternatives. Perhaps the sleekest option comes from FinalStraw. Designed to be collapsible and easy to carry, the reusable straw is made out of stainless steel and lined on the inside with food grade silicone, so the product is both safe and durable. The company says this is just the first product in a coming line of ‘Foreverables’, items designed to replace single-use plastic and last forever. The company has already sold 300,000 straws, preventing approximately 27 million plastic straws from entering the environment. The straw retails at 24.50 USD. https://finalstraw.com
