Description

To help in preserving our favorite planet, please dispose of your straws in such a way that they don't impact the foraging wildlife that those straws may end up in.

Just place a razor blade in the proper orientation (blade edge facing the curvy side).  Insert the straw at the filleted end and pull out the two halves from the other end:

 

Ultimately, however, single use plastics are kinda lame for the world.  For more information:

Awful, right?  Luckily for most developed countries, most straws end up in landfills but that still may not be enough to keep microplastics from proliferating.  

Nonetheless, since I can't get you off plastic anyway, maybe this will help alleviate our burden on earth for future generations to enjoy.

If you found this useful, it would bring me great joy to see your work - so be sure to share. :)

Or, just buy me a coffee:

OR… better yet, please feel free to dump a bitcoin or two here:

... include a note to the effect of "Hi Julius3E8, thanks for the [insert name of thing]... my life has improved five-fold on account of it and please accept this paltry amount in gratitude".

You're welcome! (in advance) :D

Also, feel free to peruse my other submissions which are almost as varied as they are many:
