The world's largest Cigarette Butt

Sep 6, 2008 0 comments

A 30-foot-tall (9-meter-tall) cigarette butt was dropped in the middle of Trafalgar Square, London, on April this year, by the Keep Britain Tidy campaign run by the charity ENCAMS, in protest against cigarette butt littering. The problem has skyrocketed since July 2007, when Britain's ban on smoking in public places was put in place. Cigarette litter dirties 78 percent of streets in the United Kingdom.
