Stop the Use of Straws Plastic straws being one of the major issues that affect the environment, it is, therefore, vital to find ways to help minimize the use of plastic straws to help conserve the environment. Different strategies need to be put in place to assist reduce the use of plastic straws that affect the environment. According to Schuyler et al., (2018, p. 252) one of the strategies that need to be implemented is increasing producer responsibility. In the last 50 years, plastic straws production has increased, and some of the leading manufacturer of plastic still has got a plan to double the output. This might be taking the world in the wrong direction; therefore an alternative must be found to help the increasing production of plastic straws. Rules and regulations guiding manufacturing companies responsible for major plastic waste must be put in place through specific industry agreement. This will ensure the proper handling of waste plastic straws. Besides, by increasing taxes and fees on plastic straws pollution, huge numbers of plastics used are produced from oil. These are sources of both pollution and climate emissions. There being that fossil plastic is not expensive to prepare and purchase than the renewable. The need to implement a fee or a tax on polluting plastics must be investigated. This fee should be revised to make recycled plastic straws cheaper than fossil (Schuyler et al., 2018, p. 252). Also, these strategies can be implemented through increasing waste handling where the issue is prominent since the large plastic waste comes from developing countries. High population growth means there is high use of plastic straws and much of them are normally being disposed of in its water body. As part of this solution, a program should be established to help curb these environmental issues through recycling and management (Shiwnarain, 2018, p. xx) By increasing funds for cleaning up, to solve the plastic straws problem which affects the environment? We have to make sure that clean up operations and actions are undertaken in places where the problem might seem great. Thus it would be only possible when there is an increase in funds for managing this problem. This can be done by allocating global land fund and ocean fund to create a future without marine and plastic pollution (West et al., 2019, p. xx) Additionally, we must minimize the dependency on plastic usage. Use of single plastic for example straws must be put to an end. This effort must be raised so that the consumption of global plastic goes down. Individuals can only achieve this by refusing to use these products. Through stopping the disposal of plastic straws in the land and sea, a big number of percentages of plastic in the sea and land have been suspected. This normally comes from industrial activities on earth. It is therefore important that everyone contributes to finding the solution to this problem. For example, we can involve ourselves in up activities, even cutting out our plastic consumption and be responsible enough to pick any litter of straws you get along your way. According West et al., (2019, p. xx) by increasing surveillance, research and mapping can help minimize the use of plastic straws. The effort to monitor and map and also researching non-positive effects must be encouraged this will automatically help reduce the plastic waste. A zero vision for land and ocean plastic straws implementation can reduce the use of plastic straws. An international agreement with targets of the firm and time frame leading to implementation should be therefore established thus ensuring mapping of origin of plastic waste, increasing the responsibility of markets to stop new propagation and encourage plastic straws waste management globally to reduce the use of plastic straws.
