Thanks to climate change fanatics we are now forced to drink from useless paper straws that turn soggy and taste horrible after just a few sips. I cannot tell you enough how annoying those things are.
But it was all for good we were told. It would be good for the environment they said. Save the turtles!
Turns out that it might have been all for NOTHING.
Researchers have found that a whopping 90% of paper straws contain TOXIC forever chemicals called PFAS (poly and perfluoroalkyl substances).
They tested lots of different straws and found PFAS in plant based straws such as paper and bamboo.
