GIVEAWAY: Straws For Life says no to plastic straws

I am becoming more and more aware of the destructive nature of humans. Perhaps I was naive when I was younger, or too self-obsessed to notice what we are doing to our beautiful planet. We all know the the phrase ‘reduce, reuse, recycle’, but do we really do all we can to practice this? I know that there is so much more that I can do and one of the practices I am putting in place, is to say no to plastic straws.

Say no to plastic straws

So what’s the big deal about plastic straws? This is what the Two Oceans Aquarium’s Straws Suck campaign has to say about it:

Straws are lightweight and easily blown away by the wind. They are not recyclable. Animals can mistake straws for food, which can lead to their deaths.

The easiest way to not use a straw is to refuse it when you order. That way the waiter will bring you a straw-less drink. You might also want to investigate reusable, or paper straws.

Straws For Life

I was recently introduced to Straws For Life. These gorgeous stainless steel straws will last for years and, let’s be honest, they look damn good too.

Straws For Life is the new alternative to traditional, plastic, single use straws.

Say no to plastic straws

The set I received contains 4 beautiful, eco-friendly stainless steel straws (two straight and two bendy) in a hessian bag. Now I can take my straws wherever I go making it super easy to say no thanks to a plastic straw. The set also includes a convenient cleaning brush. That’s a big win. Plus these beauties are dishwasher friendly.

GIVEAWAY: Straws For Life says no to plastic straws!

Pop on over to www.strawsforlife.co.za to have a look at the various sets available and buy your straws today.

I realise that you are probably thinking that your few straws won’t make a difference, but if more of us start making better choices, we can make a difference in the long run.

So say “No Thank You” to that plastic straw, and be an ambassador for the environment by choosing to use your own stainless steel Straws For Life.

GIVEAWAY

The very kind people from Straws For Life sent me an extra set to give away.

All you have to do to win a set of stainless steel straws worth R175, is comment below and you are in it to win it. You can earn extra entries for Facebook and Twitter shares  – make sure to leave a separate comment for each telling me where you’ve shared the giveaway.
