Speaker 1: Well, we have some bad news from across the pond.
Speaker 1: Last year, McDonald's, Mickey D's, and the United Kingdom got
Speaker 1: rid of all of their plastic straws. Management figured that
Speaker 1: by changing over to paper straws in restaurants, they would
Speaker 1: prove to the environmentalist wackos that they were serious about
Speaker 1: saving the earth. But you see there's a problem. According
Speaker 1: to CNN, McDonald's paper straws are too thick to be
Speaker 1: processed by recyclers in the UK. Even though the straws
Speaker 1: are paper, they cannot be recycled, unlike the plastic straws
Speaker 1: that McDonald's got rid of, which were recyclable. This is
Speaker 1: a huge backfire, my friends. It's unsustainable now. I sure
Speaker 1: hope the smartest creatures in the sea, the dolphins. I
Speaker 1: hope they take a good look at what just happened here.
Speaker 1: Environmentalist wackos pressure every evil corporation to stop using plastic.
Speaker 1: McDonald's surrendered, and now the dolphins and the whales, the
Speaker 1: sea turtles are in more told danger. While hunting for
Speaker 1: their fishy fast food in the oceans, these beautiful creatures
Speaker 1: may end up swallowing soggy paper straws, which cannot be recycled,
Speaker 1: and you know how that would embarrass the dolphins and
Speaker 1: just have to suck it up. What else can they
Speaker 1: do when dealing with environmentalist wackos, same thing we have
Speaker 1: to do, suck it up.
