Pasta straws seem like the obvious solution, it takes at least 5 minutes to soften in BOILING water, it's gonna last at least that long in a chilled beverage, and then if you throw it in the forest that's literally just food
I'm guessing it's because there's not as much profit for billionaires in it.
Ah yes, I forgot.
I mean, let's be honest, that's how the system works. Apart from essential goods, most demand is entirely artificial and generated either by advertising (luxury goods), or, in this case, more covertly by manipulating the public opinion and, if necessary, bribing a few public officials to pass a law that makes your product mandatory.
That's the equivalent of a lot of straws.
TaleSpin
let me add my contribution to this meme:
image description: a luxurious inside view of a private jet, in which another jet is flying inside.
the text above it reads, "Taylor swift yendo al baño de su jet."
lit: Taylor swift going to her jet's bathroom.
I don't know if all these recent jet memes are people just joking around or are you people actually convinced private jets are the problem?
Taylor swift, and every single billionaire alive could be flying 24/7/365 OR NOT and it would make absolutely no difference to fighting climate change.
The main polluters are industry and farming.
All this other shit around are just distractions keeping you from actually going after the people that are causing our crisis.
I don't know if it's astroturfing or what, but it seems like it's deliberate manipulation to keep people inactive.
You memeing on Tylor or using wood straws, or recycling your soda can does fuck all. A single paper plant will dump out so much co2 and pollution that will negate the effort of millions.
