Say No to Plastic Straws

An estimated 71% of seabirds and 30% of turtles have been found with plastics in their stomachs. When marine wildlife ingest plastic, they have a 50% mortality rate. By asking for no straw when placing a drink order, I will keep 1 plastic straw(s) of out of the ocean each day.

    I have lived by the beach my whole life. I do heal the bay every year but beside that when I am at the beach, I will pick up trash that is left behind from tourist. I have seen so much marine life affected by what is left behind from boaters and people visiting the beaches. We have a saying at the beach, if you bring it with you, take it with you...
