Cigarette Butt Litter is not only toxic, unsightly, really bad for our environment - and poses a serious fire risk - it also has the potential to be extremely damaging to the public profile and image of every business and organisation - because of the issue of Affiliated Butt Litter.
Affiliated Butt Litter is the Cigarette Butt Litter created by an organisation's smokers - whether they are staff & employees, customers, patrons, contractors, guests, visitors, clients, students, patients, members, passengers, etc.
From the point of view of any organisation's public profile, it doesn't get much worse than their smokers littering their butts - especially when they do it in public. Butt littering is not only illegal it's also environmentally irresponsible - and nothing less than blatant anti-social behaviour. And people do notice - and that can result in a lot more negative effects too.
It's for these reasons that No BuTTs ashtrays offer simple, effective, economical and sustainable solutions for Cigarette Butt Litter to:
- Corporations
- Organisations
- Local Government & Environmental Agencies
- Restaurants, Cafes & Bars
- Resorts & Hotels
- Tour Operators, Coach & Cruise Lines
- Airports, Train Stations, Bus Depots & Wharves
- Tourist Destinations, National Parks & Ski Resorts
- Universities, Colleges & EDUs
- Festivals, Events & Functions
- Property Managers
- Conference & Convention Centres
- Venues, Sports Stadiums & Racecourses
- Golf, Bowls & Outdoor Sporting Clubs
- Personal Smokers
Note that we refer to it as Cigarette Butt Litter - not Cigarette Butt Pollution. That's because pollution is for all intents and purposes an unintentional and unavoidable by-product of an action - in other words, you can't stop it happening when you do something.
...vehicles emit exhaust fumes when you drive them...
...planes emit exhaust fumes when you fly on them...
...power stations emit green house gases when you switch on a light (unless you're
completely solar)...
...smokers release smoke into the air when they smoke...
Stop right there... We know what you're thinking... No BuTTs is not an anti-smoking site and we're not here to debate the issue of smoking at all. Smoking is (still) legal - and the fact is that lots of people do it. No BuTTs exists to deal with the reality that for various reasons, billions of cigarette butts every year end up littering Australia.
And when it comes to the entire planet, we're talking trillions. And those butts end up damaging our environment, degrading the appearance of every location, poisoning our waterways and wildlife, and sometimes even causing fires that damage property and kill people.
But it need not be. Cigarette Butt Litter is completely avoidable. All litter is avoidable.
Every cigarette butt littering our planet is the direct result of someone's conscious decision to litter their cigarette butt - and that's completely avoidable. Whenever and wherever it happens. Everytime.
Ultimately, the issue of responsibility, both of individual smokers and organisations will be crucial to the success of our mission. At No BuTTs we believe that the solution to addressing the problem of Cigarette Butt Litter lies with:
- education
- awareness
- effective product
Increasingly, as Public, Corporate and Govt awareness of the problem of Cigarette Butt Litter continues to grow, we're also seeing more emphasis on legislation - and enforcement. Everyone knows the littering anything is wrong and that you can be fined if you're caught doing it. And that's exactly the way it should be.
Cigarete butts are litter. No excuses. And the world is not an ashtray.
We hope you'll enjoy visiting our site - and help spread the word about Cigarette Butt Litter. We can be successful at eliminating this insidious, unnecessary and completely avoidable problem by working together to get the facts out, raising public awareness of the issue - and providing intelligent, simple and sustainable solutions to the problem of Cigarette Butt Litter.
No BuTTs about it.
No BuTTs. ...because the world is not an ashtray.
