The Campaign
SPI for a Strawless Ocean is a city-wide effort to omit plastic straws from South Padre Island, Texas. We are working vigorously to help educate our culture of restaurants and food and beverage industry professionals to practice and implement a "straw upon request" policy as well as adopt the appropriate paper straw for consumers with the need.
The Impact
So far there are only 5 restaurants of our 50 food and beverage locations that have committed to a "Straw Upon Request" policy AND have a plastic straw alternative. SPI food and beverage locations use an estimated 5 million straws a year. We need a team of volunteers to help us be a part of this change. If you are interested in helping join the campaign please volunteer here!
