A single straw may seem like nothing. It's not. Millions of tons of plastic enter oceans around the world each year. Since they often can't be recycled, single-use plastic straws are among the main offenders. It's happening in New York. Plastic pollution in our city is deadly for local turtles, whales, fish, and birds. They can't help getting tangled in it or mistaking it for food. Join us and let's make a difference together.
Give a Sip is a Wildlife Conservation Society campaign based out of the New York Aquarium. There our experts work to protect our local waters and marine wildlife through local field research, policy initiatives, and public outreach.
These great folks are part of the campaign. Like you, they give a sip about our seas.
