Strawfree Society

• 500 million straws are used every day in the United States. Enough to fill 127 school trucks.

• 8% of the world's oil production is used to make plastics.

• The straws create pollution in all stages of their existence: from the extraction of oil, its manufacture, its shipment until its distribution.

• Straws are one of 10 pieces of garbage that pollute the oceans.

• Once a turtle was found with more than a thousand pieces of plastic in its stomach.

• An estimated 1 million sea birds, 100,000 marine mammals and countless fish die each year from plastic contamination in the oceans.

• It is estimated that by 2050 there will be more plastics than fish in the oceans.

• The straws do not biodegrade, they are photodegraded. The straws are decomposed into more harmful pieces that can last 100 years without degrading.

90% of aquatic birds, whales,

dolphins, and turtles have

ingested plastic, especially

straws
