Straws are small cylindrical tubes used for drinking. They are typically made from plastic, paper, or metal, and can come in a variety of colors and sizes. Straws have a small opening at one end that is used for inserting into a drink, and a larger opening at the other end for drinking through.
Plastic straws have become a major environmental concern due to their widespread use and disposal. They are often used for just a few minutes before being thrown away, and can take hundreds of years to decompose in the environment. This has led to many efforts to reduce or eliminate the use of plastic straws, with many businesses switching to paper or reusable metal straws.
Metal straws are becoming increasingly popular as a reusable and eco-friendly alternative to plastic straws. They can be washed and reused many times, and are often sold with a small brush for cleaning the inside of the straw.
