Burbank business Turtyle Straws hopes its paper straws will contribute to the green movement.

A new Burbank business is looking to ride the wave of new sustainability-focused products aimed at making the environment cleaner.

Vic Germani, a spokesman for the company, said one of the founders of Turtyle, Gagik Panosyan, was inspired by a video made by Christine Figgener, a marine conservation biologist, that showed a sea turtle struggling with a plastic straw up one of its nostrils. In July, Burbank voted to hire a consultant to help the city draft an ordinance that would ban businesses from using expanded polystyrene, commonly known as Styrofoam. Additionally, the city has been focused on being a zero-waste community.Turtyle offers paper straws in a variety of configurations — from cocktail straws to wider-diameter straws for boba.

 

Paper straws dont work. But virtue signaling is profitable.
