Recently, McDonald's officially announced that it will no longer provide straws in the future, which means that there will be no straws to drink in McDonald's in the future, which also caused a heated discussion on the Internet. In fact, many people in life usually drink through straws, but in order to support environmental protection, McDonald's made a brave performance. If you are used to drinking through straws, remember to bring your own straws when you go to McDonald's. In August and September this year, McDonald's in Australia, Britain and parts of Ireland completely stopped using plastic straws and switched to paper straws.
Later, according to McDonald's plan, Belgian McDonald's has also completed the test of paper straws, and then the United States, France, Sweden, Norway and other countries are expected to start testing paper straws at the end of the year.
In fact, in some foreign restaurants, some McDonald's are still experimenting with recycling cups, and the means to implement this plan is to set up garbage sorting boxes in restaurants, and then use them to separate liquids, plastics, paper cups and other garbage. Many studies also show that plastic waste is a serious threat to marine ecological security at present. At the same time, according to an experiment of a foreign university, microplastics particles actually exist in human feces, which has become a potential danger to human health. In view of various situations, it is actually a good starting point for McDonald's not to provide plastic straws, and it is actually good to reduce the use of plastic.
