There are styrofoam bans, plastic bag bans, plastic straw bans, plastic utensil bans... I understand that. I get that.
Why isn't there more talk about cigarette butts? They're everywhere. They never degrade. And, it seems like people are more prone to flicking a cigarette butt out a car window than a spork.
Smoking bans in Pennsylvania seem to have stalled. There are bills in the legislature to get rid of all the exemptions in the weak and current law. I don't expect them to advance.
In spite of the bans that exist, we still seem to be buried in cigarette butts.
