The bad of paper straws...
« on: August 28, 2023, 01:03:04 PM »
Remember the hype over paper straws... that were supposed to be good for the environment? Well... looks like it's much much worst than plastic straws.

A study by Belgian researchers found that the paper straws contained toxic chemical - PFAS (Perfluoroalkyl and Polyfluoroalky l).
