THE PROBLEM
We use 500 million plastic straws every day in the U.S.
Many of those plastic straws end up in our oceans, polluting the water and harming sea life. If we don’t act now, by 2050 plastics in the ocean will outweigh the fish. One small change can have a big impact: #stopsucking on plastic straws.
THE SOLUTION
Take action for our ocean
We believe 2017 is the year to create a global movement with measurable impact.
