Every day, Americans throw away 500 million plastic straws, enough to circle the Earth twice, or fill 125 school buses. 姣忓ぉ緹庡浗浜洪兘瑕佹墧鎺?浜挎牴濉戞枡鍚哥錛岃凍浠ョ粫鍦扮悆涓ゅ湀錛屾垨鑰呰婊?25杈嗘牎杞︺?
Made from fossil fuels, they are almost never recycled because they're too small and could be made from several different types of plastic. They simply contribute to the massive problem of plastic pollution; eight million tons of plastic is dumped into the oceans every year. 鐢ㄥ寲鐭崇噧鏂欏埗鎴愮殑濉戞枡鍚哥鍑犱箮浠庢潵涓嶄細琚洖鏀跺埄鐢紝鍥犱負瀹冧滑浣撶Н澶皬錛岃屼笖鍙兘鏄敱濂藉嚑縐嶄笉鍚岀被鍨嬬殑濉戞枡鍒舵垚鐨勩傝繖浜涘惛綆$洿鎺ュ姞鍓т簡濉戞枡姹℃煋鐨勪弗閲嶉棶棰橈紝姣忓勾閮戒細鏈?00涓囧惃濉戞枡琚懼掕繘嫻鋒磱涓?

Plastic straws are now the target of a growing movement to reduce their use. Possibly the first of such campaigns, Be Straw Free was started in 2011 by Milo Cress, who was only nine years old at the time. "I noticed that whenever I ordered a drink at a restaurant, it would usually come with a straw in it, and I don't usually need a straw," he said. 鐜板湪浠ュ噺灝戝鏂欏惛綆′嬌鐢ㄩ噺涓虹洰鏍囩殑榪愬姩瓚婃潵瓚婂銆傗滀笉鐢ㄥ惛綆♀濆彲鑳芥槸絎竴鍦鴻繖鏍風殑榪愬姩錛岃榪愬姩鍦?011騫寸敱騫翠粎9宀佺殑綾崇綏鈥㈠厠闆鋒柉鍙戣搗銆傚厠闆鋒柉璇達細鈥滄垜娉ㄦ剰鍒幫紝鏃犺浣曟椂鎴戝湪槨愬巺鐐歸ギ鏂欙紝鏉瓙閲屾諱細鏈夊惛綆★紝鑰屾垜涓鑸笉闇瑕佸惛綆°傗?

Cress started asking restaurants in Burlington, Vermont, where he lived at the time, to stop providing straws automatically to customers and make them optional instead. Many agreed and his request made ripples nationwide. He says that restaurants that make the switch report a reduction in the number of straws they use between 50 and 80%. 鍏嬮浄鏂紑濮嬭姹備粬褰撴椂鐨勫眳浣忓湴浣涜挋鐗瑰窞浼伒欏跨殑槨愬巺鍋滄鑷姩涓洪【瀹㈡彁渚涘惛綆★紝鏀逛負鑷夈傝澶氶鍘呴兘鍚屾剰浜嗭紝浠栫殑璇鋒眰浜х敓鐨勫獎鍝嶅儚娑熸吉涓鑸湪鍏ㄥ浗鎵╂暎寮鏉ャ備粬璇達紝鍋氬嚭鏀瑰彉鐨勯鍘呮姤鍛婅錛屾墍鐢ㄧ殑鍚哥鏁伴噺鍑忓皯浜?0%鍒?0%銆?

The anti-straw sentiment has crossed borders into the UK, where straws have been included in a government plan to ban all plastic waste by 2042. Last year, large pub chain Wetherspoons announced that it would replace plastic straws with paper alternatives across 900 outlets. After the announcement, many smaller chains and pubs across the country followed suit. According to Wetherspoons CEO John Hutson, the move will save 70 million plastic straws a year and the reaction from patrons has been "very positive." 鍙嶅惛綆$儹娼繕鎵╂暎鍒頒簡鑻卞浗錛屽惛綆¤綰沖叆浜嗚嫳鍥芥斂搴滃湪2042騫村墠紱佹鎵鏈夊鏂欏瀮鍦劇殑璁″垝銆傚幓騫達紝澶у瀷榪為攣閰掑惂Wetherspoons瀹e竷錛屽皢鍦?00瀹跺垎搴椾腑鎶婂鏂欏惛綆℃浛鎹負綰稿惛綆°傚湪榪欎箣鍚庯紝鑻卞浗璁稿涓皬鍨嬭繛閿佸簵鍜岄厭鍚х悍綰鋒晥浠褲俉etherspoons鍏徃鐨勯甯墽琛屽畼綰︾堪鈥㈠搱鐗規.琛ㄧず錛屾涓炬瘡騫村皢鑺傜渷7000涓囨牴濉戞枡鍚哥錛屼粠瀹㈡埛閭i噷寰楀埌鐨勫弽棣堜篃鈥滈潪甯哥Н鏋佲濄?

Offering alternatives or making plastic straws optional, rather than banning them outright, is a common trait among these campaigns. "We do not want to make people feel bad for needing or even wanting to use a straw in their drink," said Jackie Nunez, founder of The Last Plastic Straw. 鎻愪緵濉戞枡鍚哥鐨勬浛浠e搧錛屾垨鑰呭皢濉戞枡鍚哥鍙樹負鍙夐」錛岃屼笉鏄畬鍏ㄧ姝紝鏄繖綾繪椿鍔ㄧ殑鏅亶鐗瑰緛銆傗滄渶鍚庝竴鏍瑰鏂欏惛綆♀濊繍鍔ㄧ殑鍒涘浜烘澃鍩衡㈠姫娑呮柉璇達細鈥滄垜浠笉鎯寵浜轟滑鍥犱負闇瑕佹垨鎯寵鐢ㄥ惛綆″枬楗枡鑰屾劅鍒頒笉鐥涘揩銆傗?

Some people use straws to reduce the damage of sugary or acidic drinks to their teeth, or due to special requirements. "There are disabled people who write me to tell me they carry reusable straws with them -- many reusable straws even come with a carrying case," said Cress. "There are reusable glass, stainless steel, copper, bamboo, and several other kinds of reusable straws." 鏈変簺浜轟負浜嗛檷浣庡惈緋栨垨閰告чギ鏂欏鐗欓嬌鐨勪激瀹蟲垨鍏朵粬鐗規畩闇姹傝屼嬌鐢ㄥ惛綆°傗滄湁浜涗笉寰椾笉鐢ㄥ惛綆$殑浜哄啓淇″憡璇夋垜錛屼粬浠殢韜惡甯﹀彲鍙嶅浣跨敤鐨勫惛綆♀斺旇澶氳繖縐嶅惛綆¤繕鑷甫鏀剁撼鐩掞紝鈥濆厠闆鋒柉璇達紝鈥滅幇鍦ㄦ湁鍙弽澶嶄嬌鐢ㄧ殑鐜葷拑鍚哥銆佷笉閿堥挗鍚哥銆侀摐鍚哥銆佺鍚哥錛岃繕鏈夊ソ鍑犵鍏朵粬綾誨瀷鐨勫惛綆″彲澶氭浣跨敤銆傗?
By not demonizing the straw as an object, he thinks activists can hope to achieve better goals. "I am not out to ban straws. I think it's much more effective to encourage people to make the choice not to use them. Voluntary participation encourages people to spread the word. Forcing people to do things is not always the most effective way to make a change." 浠栬涓猴紝濡傛灉涓嶅皢鍚哥榪欎釜鐗╁搧濡栭瓟鍖栵紝鍙嶅惛綆℃椿鍔ㄦ湁鏈涜揪鍒版洿楂樼殑鐩爣銆傗滄垜涓嶈禐鎴愮姝㈠惛綆°傛垜璁や負榧撳姳浜轟滑閫夋嫨涓嶇敤鍚哥浼氭湁鏁堝緱澶氥傝嚜鎰跨殑鍙備笌浼氶紦鍔變漢浠紶鎾俊鎭傚己榪漢浠幓鍋氫簨涓嶄竴瀹氭槸杈炬垚鏀瑰彉鏈鏈夋晥鐨勬柟寮忋傗?
