Here’s Why It’s Time to Rethink That Flick.
Ever noticed the ground around your favorite chill spot? Or the pavement outside your building? Cigarette butts, everywhere. It's easy to think of them as harmless — they're tiny, right? But those tiny filters are the most littered item in the world. And they stick around way longer than your last smoke break.
Let’s break it down with three questions every smoker should be asking.

1. Still tossing your butts on the street?
It might feel like no big deal. You flick, walk off, and forget. But cigarette filters aren’t biodegradable — they’re made of plastic fibers that can take up to a decade to break down. Multiply that by millions of people flicking every day, and you’ve got a global trash problem in your pocket.
They don’t just disappear — they pile up in drains, parks, sidewalks, and beaches. And yeah, it does ruin the vibe.

2. Ever thought where your butt ends up?
When a cigarette butt hits the ground, it doesn’t stay there. It gets washed into storm drains, flows into rivers, then out into oceans. Marine life eats it thinking it’s food. Eventually, that toxic mess circles back to us — in the water we drink, the food we eat, the ecosystems we depend on.
It’s a dirty loop — but one you can step out of.
