I live in a country where smoking has generally been on the decline for a while now but even still I see thousands of cigarette butts in just about any public place. They litter the sides of the road, bus shelters, alleyways, outside clubs, bars and pubs, public toilets, park benches and just about everywhere else. Its even extending to disposable vapes now as well.
For the most part, where I live doesn’t have that much of other kinds of litter about and is generally clean. And most public bins and all smoking areas have ashtrays and dedicated cigarette bins so it wouldn’t be hard to dispose of them properly like any other piece of rubbish and even then there’s often cigarette butts within sight of the bins and ashtrays.
Why then do people have a completely different approach for cigarettes?
I can say the same thing people who consume prepared beverages, ie starbucks caps, buttle tea straight plastic on plastic etc is everywhere. god forbid they go half a block to put in the trash. tourist areas are fucking abominations.
Smokers are deff dicks with cigarettes butts but culture of waste if not limited to them and they cause less litter than people getting carry out food unless you know what you are doing…
I don’t do chipotle anymore but their carry out packaging was paper on paper with some foil. OG pizza, paper box…
some food aint meant for carry out folks, stop.
