Tobacco butts

The Environmental Impact of Throwing Out Tobacco Butts Cigarette butts may look small, but they are a major environmental hazard if not disposed of correctly. Cigarette filters are made to absorb water, causing them to swell and block drains. This can lead to clogs and costly plumbing repairs. Cigarette butts do not break down easily and can last for years in the environment. Millions end up in landfills and nature, adding to pollution. They also contain harmful chemicals like nicotine, which can leak into soil and water, endangering wildlife and ecosystems. To help, always use proper bins for cigarette butts or join clean-up efforts to reduce their impact.
