Comment on Tethered plastic caps
noobnarski@feddit.de 3 months agoIts the same with the paper straws while disposable electronic cigarettes are still allowed, which not only contain plastics, but also electronics and a rechargeable lithium cell.
All the while a reusable vape works just as well, while paper straws just suck and they even contain plastic as well.

I mean you can also get reusable metal straws the same as a reusable vape.

I like the pasta straws as a concept, stays solid AND something will eat it when disposed of. Win win!

I think that little piece of plastic doesnt really make a huge impact, its not a lot of plastic and we have so many other places where we could guide manufacturers to include less plastic in packaging.
Its much more energy intensive to produce a disposable vape, they contain more plastic, the battery has to be produced and its unlikely they end up in electronics recycling, where they belong.
