How do people in LA feel about plastic straws making a comeback?

  • President Donald Trump signed an executive order to end the procurement and forced use of paper straws in federal agencies, stating they are ineffective and contain harmful chemicals.
  • A Belgian study published in 2023 found that paper straws contain higher levels of perfluoroalkylate and polyfluoroalkylate substances, known as 'forever chemicals,' than plastic straws.
  • Trump's order also highlighted that producing paper straws has a larger carbon footprint and requires more water than plastic straws.
  • Climate groups like Oceana responded, warning that the world is facing a plastic pollution crisis and urging action against environmental threats.
