Why Reusable Straws Are the Best New Year Swap You Can Make
New Year resolutions don’t have to be complicated. Sometimes, the smallest changes create the biggest impact—and switching to reusable straws is one of the easiest ways to start living more sustainably.
The Plastic Straw Problem in Vietnam
Plastic straws are used for minutes but remain in the environment for hundreds of years. In Vietnam’s café culture, millions of straws are consumed daily, especially with iced coffee and takeaway drinks.
Reusable straws directly address this issue by eliminating single-use plastic at the source.
Why Sugarcane Straws Are a Popular Choice
Bamboo straws are biodegradable, lightweight, and made from a fast-growing renewable resource. They fit naturally into Vietnam’s tropical lifestyle and are ideal for both home use and businesses.
