Sandals Resorts ditches single use straws across all its properties in the Caribbean

Sandals Resorts International, the famous hospitality chain that has 19 resorts across seven Caribbean islands, has just announced its plans to remove single-use plastic straws from all its properties.

The company estimates that the initiative would save 21 million straws used at the resorts each year from ending up in our landfills and waterways.
