This being one line made me wonder a bit. I had a brain tumor a while back, and one of the areas effected was swallowing, so the doctors advised that a start using straws. I found out that the key word missing in Random's presentation was 'plastic'. Plastic straws often are not recycled, and are too small to be worth recycling in many case. As a result there are sometime found in the wild killing beasties.

Thus, many organizations such as restaurant chains, airlines and governments are just shutting down plastic straws. Paper ones are good enough and biodegradable. Why not? I made a mental note to purchase paper straws in the future.

So this is a case of those wanting to do the responsible thing being responsible, and those that want to politicize everything doing so.
