I have come over a notice in the newspaper that I thought they had lifted from a satirical magazine but found this website:
https://www.whitehouse.gov/fact-sheets/2025/02/fact-sheet-president-donald-j-trump-ends-the-procurement-and-forced-use-of-paper-straws/
I am deeply impressed how the president is taking the most important things in hands...
PS: Maybe I should add that I personnally am nt a fan of paper straws or straws in general.
@Ponderable saidStraws are great, but I am not a fan of single-use plastic items that will sit in landfills for 500,000 years. Paper straws biodegrade, at least.

@Suzianne saidI can think of better uses for cutting down forests. I appreciate that handicapped people may need straws, if they cannot hold a cup or glass. I personally have stainless steel straws -- look classy and are recyclable (might have been a bicycle in a previous life, or become a bicycle in some future life).
