Remember that this lens is not against smokers,but the actual harm done by smoking
How long does a cigarette butt intrude upon nature?
An unexpected length of time!
Cigarette filters are 100 percent nonbiodegradable and made up of a plastic compound called cellulose acetate, which contains toxic chemicals!

These toxic chemicals can seep out and pollute everything it surrounds!

It can take a single cigarette more than 15 years to disintegrate naturally!

So next time you see a cigarette on the ground pick it up it doesn't take that much effort!
Water Pollution!
Many cigarette boxes and cigarette butts end up in rivers and lakes!

1 single cigarette butt can pollute 40 l of drinking water!

Think about people the average smoker smokes a pack a day thats 20 cigarettes!

The chances of these discarded butts ending up in our lovely rivers is very high!
TRASH!
Every day millions of cigarette boxes are thrown on the ground polluting streets and parks, they are representing the majority of all littered trash in these areas.
Fires!
Deadly incidents!
1 out of 4 fires are caused by cigarettes!

More children die from fires caused by cigarettes than those caused by other dangerous accidents.

Someone in America dies everyday from a fire caused by a cigarette.
