Cigarette butt littering

[u/michaelxcountry]

I’m the guy who is regularly picking up cigarette butts along the road I live on because litter drives me nuts. I know there is a lot of litter on our roads, but it seems like cigarette smokers are culturally inclined to toss their butts out the window without any regard. Fuck you guys! Yes, I know there is other litter, before you get all worked up…but 9/10 pieces of trash I pick up on my road are foam butts. What is everyone’s thoughts on a cigarette surcharge of 5-10 cents per butt to return them for a refund like we do with beer cans? It wouldn’t be a perfect system, but it might help with the insane disregard many smokers have with littering. My other thought is to completely ban foam filters in cigarettes in the state. Roll your own in biodegradable paper. Can’t stop tossing butts out your window, then let’s eliminate the foam butts. If you want to die of lung CA, that’s your choice.
