Litter News

Litter News

Every day we see articles about littering in the news, most notably cigarette litter because it causes fires. Each day I receive a list of articles regarding these incidents and will be posting them to make the point that discarded cigarette butts pose more of a threat than just their unsightliness.

LitterButt has also received it's fair share of press including articles in the Philadelphia Inquirer, Wall Street Journal, USA Today and even mention on Good Morning America. These items will also be posted.

s the new school year starts, the University is touting our environmentally friendly green policies more than ever. In reality, however, there are quite a few practices that happen on campus every day that are nowhere near being green. Outside the UC Satellite there are three recycling cans for aluminum and plastic bottles. As of right now, all three are so full that there are bottles protruding from the top of each one. And for all of the University’s efforts to clean up our campus, there is a lack of cigarette ashtrays around, leaving most smokers no choice but to flick their butts in the grass or on the concrete. If there were a few more cigarette butt receptacles placed around campus, this problem would cease — no smoker wants to litter, but there is little choice when there are no other options.
