    Overview

    Problem: With 4.5 trillion discarded each year, cigarette butts are the most-littered item on the planet and the single greatest source of ocean trash. Cigarette butts negatively impact the environment for both animals and humans, with their plastic, toxin, and carcinogenic contents.

    Solution: Pledge to clean up and properly dispose of cigarette butts to protect the planet! You’ll earn verified volunteer credits and inspire others with your efforts.

    This campaign is part of DoSomething’s Strength Through Service program, inspired by the changemakers in each episode of “The New Volunteers”, a new docuseries by Roadtrip Nation in partnership with The Allstate Foundation. For each action completed, volunteers earn a signed certificate to fulfill volunteer or service learning requirements and have the chance to be selected as a “New Volunteer of the Month” featured on DoSomething channels!

    DoSomething members like you have cleaned up 4.8 million butts already as part of this campaign!
