    Me personally I haven’t noticed lots of people using reusable straws and they tend to just throw them on the ground and not the trash can so some of the people in my community need to start paying more attention to the world around them.

    It was sorta hard because lots of people here automatically put your stuff in a plastic bag. So you really need to speak up and tell them no.

    It makes you relize and wonder why people just drop so many things on the ground not caring about the world.
