Cigarette Butts and the Ocean

It’s a little known fact that the biggest pollutant to hit the oceans isn’t those plastic bags from your local supermarket, or oil from the Exxon Valdez or brown trout from your local sewer, it’s CIGARETTE BUTTS. If you’re a surfer who smokes, well, you should quit. But if you’re in town, and you see someone toss a cigarette our their car window, give ‘em hell. Those butts get washed into the sewage, and out into the ocean. It’s nasty. Ok, rant over.
