California-based social impact company hyper-focused on eliminating plastic pollution. Steel Straw launched on Earth Day 2018, as co-founders Julia and Max were deeply concerned about the seemingly-unavoidable barrage of single-use plastics in their daily lives, and the larger impact that plastic pollution was having on human health and our planet.Our work aims to shift awareness of the problematic products and materials found in our daily lives, while empowering people to produce less waste both in their homes, and while on-the-go. We offer reusable products to folks who want to, "be the change." These products allow people to take a meaningful step towards reducing the manufacture, sales, and disposal of single-use items. We are committed to serve vulnerable communities impacted by the plastic pollution crisis, namely frontline communities including women of color, who are disproportionately affected by fossil fuel extraction and production.We must work to create opportunities for everyone, while recognizing that there is no such thing as "garbage" -- just resources out of place.- Julia & Max
