says Keep America Beautiful President & CEO Helen Lowman.
" Keep America Beautiful is dedicated to educating consumers on
the hazards of littering in public
spaces and park settings and providing the tools to reduce litter.
Access to ash receptacles are crucial to changing littering behaviors.
" Litter reduction has a profound effect on communities,
improving quality of life for residents and creating an appealing
place for businesses and their
families to live, " adds Lowman.
" Park and recreation settings are
remarkably well-suited for the
placement of our litter stands,
making a real difference in the
communities where the receptacles are placed. "
In addition to encouraging the
placement of ash receptacles at
transition points, such as entrances
to public buildings, Keep America
Beautiful advocates the following
proven approaches to change littering behaviors and further address

* Encourage enforcement of litter
laws, including cigarette litter.
* Raise awareness about the issue
using public service messages.
* Distribute pocket or portable
ashtrays to adult smokers.

communities to mitigate the economic, environmental and quality-of-life impact of cigarette litter.
