IKEA: end the sale of plastic straws

Plastic straws are something you probably see everyday, unfortunately this is terrible for the environment. A lot of these straws can not be recycled and end up polluting the environment.

Due to their small size, straws are often mistaken for food by animals and because of their cylindrical shape, straws can cause suffocation and death to the animal. In at least one instance, the stomach of a penguin was perforated by a plastic straw. In another  a sea turtle's nostril bled as a plastic straw was removed

There is no need for plastic straws. There are many alternatives, such as paper, glass or bamboo straws.
