Every year, 7.7 billion cigarette butts are discarded in public spaces. A large proportion of these end up in wastewater and then in the oceans. An eco-organization is now in charge of processing this particularly polluting waste. But our behavior can and must also change the situation.
According to a study commissioned in 2020 by the <\/p>\n\n\n\n

 Alcome<\/a> eco-organization, only 1 out of every two cigarette butts is disposed of in public spaces. The rest are unfortunately discarded in the street (53%), in sewage drains (25%) and even in green spaces (22%).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Smoking<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A cigarette butt may seem like harmless pollution to some. But it\u2019s not! They take over a decade to decompose completely. On contact with water, they also release particularly toxic substances (including arsenic and ammonia) and even fragment into micro-plastics, wreaking havoc on ecosystems and biodiversity. For example, while a cigarette butt alone can pollute 500 liters of water, it is estimated that it accounts for almost 40% of the waste present in the Mediterranean Sea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why do smokers throw their cigarette butts on the ground?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lack of impact awareness? Out of convenience? Because there aren\u2019t enough garbage cans?
<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

 Alcome<\/a>\u2018s study provides some answers:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

90% of those interviewed know that cigarette butts thrown on the ground pollute. 80% of them consider that the problem of cigarette butts on the street can be solved:
the installation of litter garbage cans and ashtrays in public spaces has a major influence on the proportion of smokers who adopt the right gestures: with one litter garbage can per 100 m2, the rate of compliant use improves significantly;
more is littered on vacation: while the average is 1 cigarette butt per 4 m2 of public space, tourist sites top the list with 0.76 butts per m2.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Approved by the public authorities in July 2021 for a period of 6 years, the  Alcome<\/a> eco-organization is now responsible for collecting eco-contributions from tobacco manufacturers and redistributing them to local authorities. The latter will thus receive 80 million euros a year to finance the collection and cleaning of cigarette butts. Other measures include<\/p>\n\n\n\n


the distribution of pocket and street ashtrays to prevent cigarette butts from being thrown on the ground:
funding awareness-raising campaigns on the environmental impact of cigarette butts:<\/p>\n\n\n\n


Funding research and development projects into innovative solutions for collecting and recycling cigarette butts.
The aim is clear: to reduce by at least
