    Yeah nah. Non disposable straws are just going to become disposable straws that take up more material and are more expensive. Just like the “reusable” plastic bags they use at the grocery store now.

      Maybe but a metal or glass straw that got disposed has a very different impact on the environment than a plastic one…
