Did you know that if we ban the plastic straws it will decrease the amount of plastic straws and gives the marine animals a chance to live? Did you know that plastic straws have an unknown chemicals that can harm us? Which is why we should ban plastic straws.
Plastic straws cause ocean pollution. Ocean Pollution kills more than 1 million seabirds and 100,000 marine animals every year. There are dead zones in the oceans that have been created by pollution and making life in those zones is impossible for marine or plant life. Did you know it takes a long time to decompose waste in the ocean? Well, I think we should stop littering so we can help the ocean to stop pollution.
Micro-plastics are very small pieces of plastics. Micro-plastics caused by plastic straws are harmful and poisonous to marine creatures. Did you know that 100,000 marine animals die every year? Plastics straws are harmful to the environment as it does not break down easily and is often mistaken as food by marine animals. Should we let the marine creatures suffer to death? I think we should not!
Plastic straws contain BPA (toxic chemicals in the plastics that harms your health). Would you let your family put harmful chemicals in their mouths? I think this is not only dangerous but also very unhealthy. It is not only harmful to us but it harms the marine animals too. If the animal eats plastic, they cannot digest it. The plastic fills their stomach, so they starve to death.
There are many options that can replace plastic straws for example paper straws, metals straws and bamboo straws are all the other options to reduce the use of plastic straws.
