At an alarming rate, harmful cigarette butts have infiltrated our environment – especially in urban spaces. Cigarette butts are the most littered product in the world, with an estimated 4,5 trillion cigarette butts thrown away annually, and upwards of 75% end up in nature or on the street, releasing toxic heavy metals, microplastics and other pollutants.
EU Initiatives
Littered cigarette butts is such a prevalent issue across countries that the EU has classified them as single-use plastics and covered them by the EU Single Use Plastics Directive (SUP) and Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR). In practice, this means that from 2025, manufacturers will have to cover the cost of removal.
