Too much rain in the Tankwa Karoo at to do the installation unfortunately.

But we managed to toss our butts on the way back via Opieberg.

South Africa you just beautiful.

The butts look and feel so wrong here amongst these desert flowers.

is lighting up again…look out for more activations in beautiful places, coming weeks and months.

Our environment, specially beaches having had a good cigarette pollution break, few benefits of covid.

The biggest micro plastic pollutant on the planet.

Put your stompie butt in a bin. It is plastic and poison.

Sandy Bay - Hout Bay

One of the most pristine hikes in the world.

Perhaps they don’t even know - butts are not cotton wool, but plastic and contain toxins, some nature lovers choose to throw their butt here too.

Take your butt with you.

The beaches must be loving the break from the tossers.

Butts are the largest contributor of plastic pollution in the world.

Even here - at the Western gate of the Baviaanskloof Mega Reserve, a world heritage site, we find many Ci******es Butts, on the road verge here and some in the park.

One of the most remote places in the South Africa, run by the Eastern Cape Parks.

Fynbos and extreme valleys pass as you wind your way to Patensie.

Year 6 of a tough drought Clive Statoe tells me, park ranger on duty at the gate here today.

He says about 20 cars pass on average a day here.

“Risk of fire is tremendously high. The park is home to Rhino, Leopard, Buffalo and many another animals.”

Thank you to Clive for the information and chat.

Butts are a fire hazard and poisons.

Butts tossed here end up in the Kouga dam - this dam supplies water to many towns and Port Elizabeth.

Take your Butt with you. Don’t be a tosser ; )

Thank you for funding to be here.

Tons of cigarette butt won’t be thrown and tossed into nature while the world locks down.

Cigarette butts float, are poison and plastic and end up in the ocean. From Woodstock they go to Salt river and then ocean.

Great article this. Example of a beach near a city.

Butts the #1 plastic pollutant of all.

Few know - Butts are plastic and poison.

More of a problem than any other plastic waste pollutant.
You throw them in nature, you are killing wildlife.

Cigarette butts are polluting the ocean more than plastic straws — so why not ban these? 27/02/2020

Cigarette butts are polluting the ocean more than plastic straws — so why not ban these? Cigarette butts, which easily find their way into the ocean, contain plastic in the filters that are not biodegradable.

Geat article this.

Well done nationalgeographic.com

Most don't know it - cigarrette butts are plastic and toxic. Bin them. Don't flick them, or press them into nature, she isn't a ashtray.

Cigarette butts are toxic plastic pollution. Should they be banned? Trillions of cigarette butts are thrown into the environment every year, where they leach ni****ne and heavy metals before turning into microplastic pollution.

Cigarette Butts belong in the bin, and so not here or in nature.

Kirstenbosch just magnificent - and even here you find them...

Cigarette butts are poison and plastic.

680 million tons of them are flicked, tossed and dropped into nature each year. Neither is this place your ashtray.

Tom Novotny, an epidemiologist at San Diego State University who was one of the first people to research the environmental impacts of ci******es: “People are more likely to pick up their dog p**p than cigarette butts.”

Take them with you. They are mostly plastic and contain poison.
