00:00The environmental impact of plastic straws versus paper straws is entirely unclear.
00:04This has cost both the government and private industry an absolute ton of money and left
00:09consumers all over the country wildly dissatisfied with their straws.
00:13So we're asking aspects of the federal government, federal departments and agencies to look at
00:18their existing procurement processes and we're asking your domestic policy council to look
00:23holistically at this issue to address it and it really is something that affects ordinary
00:28Americans in their everyday lives.
00:30We're going back to plastic straws.
00:31These things don't work.
00:33I've had them many times and on occasion they break, they explode.
00:38If something's hot, they don't last very long, like a matter of minutes, sometimes a matter
00:43of seconds.
00:44It's a ridiculous situation.
00:46So we're going back to plastic straws.
00:49I think it's okay.
01:01And I don't think that plastic's going to affect a shark very much as they're eating,
01:05as they're munching their way through the ocean.
