HONOLULU & LEOMINSTER, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Apr 22, 2021--
There’s a new drinking straw coming to Hawaii and it’s not another one of those mushy paper ones. It’ll feel and function exactly like the conventional straws you know, but completely biodegrade or compost like the paper straws the planet prefers. And, because they will biodegrade anywhere on the planet -- even in the ocean if they accidentally get there -- they are perfect for a state made up completely of islands.
