Pocket Ashtray Distribution
Do you smoke?
Don't throw your cigarette butts on the street:
• One cigarette butt can pollute up to 500 liters of water
• It is estimated that it represents nearly 40% of the waste found in the Mediterranean Sea
• A cigarette butt can take up to 10 years to decompose
Throw your cigarette butts in the household waste bin or in the bins located on the street.
When they are available, we encourage you to use the ashtrays provided on the street (in the street, near train stations and some shops, etc.)
If not, be prepared and carry a pocket ashtray with you: come and collect yours so that your cigarette butt ends up in the bin and not in nature."
