On: Where does the plastic in oceans come from?

Okay let me make it real simple for you. Here is a definition of wasteful.

> (of a person, action, or process) using or expending something of value carelessly, extravagantly, or to no purpose.

So yes. It is extravagant to use a straw and then throw it out and it is wasteful especially when perfectly viable alternatives are available that do not produce plastic debris.

You still don't understand what I said. Unfortunately I don't think I can make it much simpler for you.
