there are many alternatives to throwaway plastic straws and most disabled people reuse medical straws that are way better than the cheap plastic ones.

yea ofc this is just ridiculous and hypocritical

disabled people shouldn't even have to worry about these easy to solve problems, the fact that this isn't the case it's disgusting

we should pretty much stop any plastic production and much more to have a chance at surviving

I use reusable acrylic straws that last for years. Gummint can always force people to drink out of a cup by completely banning disposable straws. In that case people can bring their own straws.

Paper straws are destroyed too quickly by kids. So, going back to them is a bad idea, IMO. Wax coated paper doesn't degrade in landfills anyway.
