In addition Dindy Dock has gone to paper straws and no longer giving free doggy containers for take home leftovers. Will still use them for take out orders. said they are trying to eliminate plastic and one use containers.

Quite a few places have gone to paper straws. Buccaneer is moving to no plastic at all. They were actually one of the first bars on the island to recycle glass and plastic many years ago.

That's great. Hoping more will follow suit and get the plastic out of the environment. Or at least recycle it into eco friendly products. I've seen what can be done with recycled plastics put into roads and dwellings.

Here are the kind of straws Dindy Dock went to.

Mary's Boon is using the paper straws as well.

And the Yacht Club, and Snoopy's. More every day!

That's great to hear.
