Absolutely.  The US National Park Service estimates through the Be Straw Free campaign 1.6 disposable straws are used by the average American each day.  One individual replacing plastic straw usage with a high quality reusable straw has the potential to save 584 straws per year…and that's just one person.  Imagine the combined impact we could have on disposable straws.  While we focus on straws, our hope is that this is merely a tiny first step that encourages sustainability and the reduction of waste in other avenues as well.
