If you've had the final straw on single-use plastic waste, you'll love FinalStraw, the world's first retractable, portable straw created by Co-Founders Emma Cohen and Miles Pepper. FinalStraw raised $1.8 million dollars on Kickstarter sold their website SuckResponsibly.com. You can’t make this stuff up.
Emma Cohen, Co-Founder of FinalStraw, went from being the Sustainability Specialist at Lost Alamos National Laboratory, home of the Manhattan Project, to cleaning up trash on the beach dressed like a mermaid, to the Co-Founder of FinalStraw.
