Ban the distribution of plastic straws within England and Wales
Many companies exchange plastic straws to paper, however, numerous stores within England and Wales still sell multi-pack plastic straws meaning countless amounts are wasted. National Geographic’s study revealed 4.4 billion straws are thrown away annually, thus destroying our oceans and species.
Clear evidence of this can be found by the following;

We have come so far as a nation in the reduction of plastic straws already. Therefore, stopping the production of plastic straws would complete our goal.
