Litter Hazard

Nobody wants to go to a dirty beach.

That is why litter is one of the most important considerations when choosing a beach.

Cigarette butts remain the most littered item in America according to Keep America Beautiful.

They make up one-third of the litter found on beaches.

Other littered tobacco products found on beaches include:

Chewing tobacco tins
Cigarette packets
Plastic cigarillo tips
Plastic lighters
Spent e-cigarette pods

Tobacco waste, including vapes and cigarettes, contain materials like nicotine and plastic which are toxic to marine life.
Many millions of vapes, also containing batteries and heavy metals, are sold per month in the U. S. alone. When littered, they go directly into waterways.
