This Keep America Beautiful infographic
provides some important stats about the
impact of cigarette litter.

butt littering. In fact, the study
shows that just one additional ash
receptacle can decrease the amount
of cigarette litter by 9 percent in its
respective area. With that in mind,
Keep America Beautiful is working
with its more than 600 community-based affiliates and partnering
organizations to install 10,000 ash
and cigarette butt receptacles, or
litter stands, across the nation in
high-traffic areas, such as park and
recreation settings.
As of May 2019, nearly half
of the installation goal has been
met. However, park and recre60

ation directors can still request
up to 100 free durable-quality
litter stands for their community
simply by contacting Keep America Beautiful at litterstands@kab.
org. We do ask that you do the
following:
* Install the litter stands in an
accessible place (e.g., at transition points, such as entrances
to restaurants or office buildings, bus stops, parking lots
and other places where adult
smokers commonly dispose of
cigarette butts).
* Maintain the litter stands.
* Share the GPS coordinates for
each litter stand's location with
us so we can track where they're
placed. The hardware is included
to mount each receptacle.

Behaviors
Cigarette butts may be small, but
they are still the No. 1 form of litter in the United States, according
to the " Litter in America " study.
Cigarette litter is more than just a
blight on our landscape. Litter of
all types costs taxpayers a hefty
price to clean up, impacts our quality of life, deters economic development and, eventually, pollutes
our waterways and oceans. Moreover, a misplaced lit cigarette butt
in a park setting can be the unintended source of a fire, especially
with highly flammable infrastructure like rubberized playground
surfaces.
" Litter is both the smallest and
largest problem at the same time, "
