I was listening to the CBC doc, What a Waste this week. They did a segment on Butts.
I guess it takes roughly 25 years for them to decompose, They are made out of the same plastic that those plastic pallets are made of, a company in Toronto has started buying them for $1/lbs and recycling them into skids.
The people talking about the Butts on the radio, say the worst part of it is how many actually make it into our water supply. And nobody really thinks about that.
All around I just hate everything about smoking, tell my sister its stupid. It looks like we will loss our Grandfather to it this year. But she doesn't seem to care.
