No Straw Day
A few minutes of convenience, generations of damage
Our efforts are targeted towards inculcating in others, a sustainable lifestyle by providing a platform to kickstart their green habits and make it easier for them to do so. Through our actions, we envision a change in people's mindset and hope that everyone can make green actions a part of their lives.
About the project
On 20th April 2018, all the F&B outlets in SUTD did not offer straws to their patrons, a show of effort in the year of Climate Action and to commemorate Earth Day on 22nd April 2018.
The rationale behind No Straw Day is for everyone to take a small step towards inculcating green habits. Sure, it might not have any visible impact on the environment in the near future but it is something that we can do easily.
A minor inconvenience on our part, such as not taking a straw to drink your favourite Teh Peng, goes a long way to help the environment. It might be troublesome, but we can certainly reduce the usage of straws in our daily lives.
