Found another restaurant that uses paper straws. I take my reusable straw so I always have it for milk shakes!

I will sign a petition in support of a plastic-related initiative in my state/province.

Skip the Straw
I will keep 9 plastic straw(s) out of the landfill per day by refusing straws or using my own glass/metal straw.

Use Reusable Containers
I will only use reusable containers instead of single-use plastic storage items (such as plastic wrap, single-use sandwich bags).

Karen Linn 7/25/2019 6:34 AMI have been using cloth grocery bags for years. Also take some shopping at the mall and non-grocery stores-
Tammy Presutti 7/26/2019 1:08 PMSuch a wonderful idea, thanks for sharing. I naturally think about the grocery but not really other retail store, that is until now!

Karen Linn 7/15/2019 1:35 PMI take my own reusable water bottle into restaurants that use plastic cups to avoid them. Also reusable containers for left overs in restaurants. Wish I could convince others to skip the straw, but they just don’t get it.-
