Plastic Straws Aren’t the Problem

I didn’t know the stats around fishing nets.

I know this now because of the plastic straw conversation and ban. Thus the campaign IS actually spreading information and teaching.

But did we need to ban straws to have this conversation? Couldn't the anti straw people have simply told you about the nets in the first place?

Butthe fishing net was in response to saying how the straw campaign is bullshit.

It’s like punching me in the face and then pointing out how my visit to the doctor taught me how quitting smoking is good.
