I usually use plastic straws the most, I have recently purchased a metal straw that you can keep on your keys so that I can use that instead of a plastic one

Grace's actions
Community
Talk To My Friends and Classmates
I will decide which social or environmental issue in my community is most important to me and tell 1 friends and/or classmates each day about the issue.
Water
Use Reusable Bottles
I will use a reusable bottle and stop purchasing bottled water, saving 1 disposable plastic bottle(s) a day.
Water
Say No to Plastic Straws
An estimated 71% of seabirds and 30% of turtles have been found with plastics in their stomachs. When they ingest plastic, marine life has a 50% mortality rate. By asking for no straw when placing a drink order, I will keep 1 plastic straw(s) of out of the ocean each day.
Food
Reduce Animal Products
I will enjoy 3 meatless meal(s) and/or 3 vegan meal(s) each day this week.
