    A pair of rising fifth graders on an environmental crusade are urging Dunkin’ Donuts to adopt a policy that would make plastic straws available to customers upon request only. http://bos.gl/JlQtvaP pic.twitter.com/BrGsji43TU

        Working adults don’t have time for that “ask for a straw” nonsense early in the damn morning BEFORE coffee. 😂

        Putting the term “rising” before someone’s grade is the single stupidest thing the human race has ever done.

        More child-driven policy? Based on what evidence straws are a big problem?

        In the future, in liberal cities, you will get in more trouble if you use a plastic straw than if you shoot up heroin on the street.
