By taking the Strawless Ocean pledge, you commit to refusing single-use plastic straws and asking for marine-friendly alternatives wherever possible. The pledge is the first step in joining the global #StopSucking movement.
The Pledge
"I commit to refusing single-use plastic straws. When I need a straw, I'll choose a marine-friendly alternative — paper, hay, glass, steel, silicone, or bamboo. I recognize that some of my fellow citizens require a flexible plastic straw to drink safely, and I support keeping these alternatives available for those who need them. I'll share this commitment with my friends, my favorite restaurants, and my community to help spark systemic change. For A Strawless Ocean."
