With the wide range of chemical compounds we use in our daily lives, negative impacts on our surroundings increase daily as our population increases. Starting with the most littered item in the world, cigarette butts, there are negative effects from the thousands of toxic compounds found in one cigarette butt. During nesting season, birds nest with used cigarette filters, chicks hatch directly on nicotine and are affected from birth. During rainstorms every exposed cigarette butt leaches toxic compounds into our ground water that we eventually drink. Filtering the water to make it fit for human consumption is hard, but think about the traveling time and the chemical trail from point of disposal, the one butt has contaminated the stream it entered, the river it leads to, and finally the ocean where they wash up on beaches during rainstorms. Marine animals ingest the butts thinking they are a food item and cannot be digested, causing death by starvation. Look at the oil spill in the gulf, an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure, but sometimes there is no cure. Prevention and education is key to environmental sustainability.
