@omgsidewalks Here's a proposal on how to create jobs, and I'm not a billionaire: stop transporting cargo via railroads and just use bearers! See? Simple!

Remember the plastic straw debate?

I was curious how banning straws globally would stack up against @TheOceanCleanup’s current impact.

US beach cleanup data suggests straws make up just 0.005% of plastic pollution.

The Ocean Cleanup is now stopping 2–5% of global plastic inflow (and growing rapidly)

So our current impact is already ~400–1000x what a global straw ban could ever achieve!
