Via Halifax Recycles
You may have noticed these cigarette butt bins popping up around the municipality. We’ve mounted four of these bins around downtown Halifax, Dartmouth and Sackville as a way to encourage putting waste in the right place, aka putting cigarette butts in the garbage or one of these snazzy bins! We’ll have some cigarette butt bin data to share with you soon.
Did you know that cigarette butts are made of plastic? When cigarette butts are littered, they contribute to micro-plastic chemical pollution to groundwater and animals – including people!
