Straw Free Sedona encouraging use of paper over plastic, straws that is.

The Sedona Chamber of Commerce has launched the Straw Free Sedona Campaign, encouraging restaurants to discontinue offering plastic straws to patrons. The campaign invites local businesses to pledge to stop providing single-use plastic straws. The Chamber says the campaign comes in response to alarming statistics about how much plastic makes its way into the world’s oceans. Chamber president and CEO Jennifer Wesselhoff says as the public becomes increasingly informed about the detrimental effects single-use plastics have on the environment she hopes they will take steps towards sustainability by using paper straws, which are a more environmentally friendly alternative.
