to rid the world of tobacco waste
In Australia, a WWF report estimates that up to 8.9 billion cigarette butts are littered annually.
Clean Up Australia reports that cigarette butts are 14% of all recorded litter in Australia.
As a charity, No More Butts is taking action.
Research shows it can take up to 15 years for cigarette butts to break down in sea water.
Cigarette butt filters contain cellulose acetate, a fibrous plastic.
There's No More Butts, something must be done.
Chemicals from butts leach into water in one hour and can harm our marine species.
Discarded cigarette butts are a contributor to hundreds of fires in Australia each year.
Cigarette filters (butts) are a single-use plastic. They are both problematic and unnecessary.
As a charity, No More Butts advocates for a filter ban, as they provide no benefit to human health.
The rapid increase of vaping poses a new risk for the environment.
