No Straw November

Plastic straws are one of the leading ocean plastic polluters; help us change that! No Straw November was created to bring awareness to the many plastic straws being used once and then thrown away in a single month. Jr. Ocean Guardians challenges you to refuse plastic straws the whole month of November and to keep a tally of how many straws you eliminated from potentially ending up in the ocean. The ultimate goal of No Straw November is to use the single-use plastic straw as a wake-up call to all the other plastic you unknowingly use in your life.

Please share this challenge with others and use the hashtag #NoStrawNovember.
