What is reed? And is it eco-friendly to use it for drinking straws?

Reed is a plant widely growing on the coastline of the seas, lakes and rivers. In old times it was a good material to build the roofs for houses and it kept the warmth. Nowadays reed is not needed for this purpose anymore. Still, to keep the coastline clean and local eco-system functioning the reed plants have to be harvested every year. On the coastline of our UNESCO biosphere island Saaremaa we have extensive areas of high quality reed plants. Compared to other straws (eg bamboo) it is much more eco-friendly as each purchase of Sutu straws is helping to keep the coastline clean.
