"NO BUTTS ABOUT IT"

The CHB Green Kiwi Trust Inc. in partnership with Keep New Zealand Beautiful and the CHB District Council, have joined in an initiative to implement the "NO BUTTS ABOUT IT" campaign.

The Trust will give vandal proof, lockable cigarette butt receptacles to 20 Central Hawke's Bay businesses for public use.

It is aimed to reduce cigarette butt litter which often ends up in waterways, entering the food chains of fish, birds and other marine life, who mistake it for food.

CIGARETTE BUTTS TAKE UP TO 5 YEARS TO BREAK DOWN!

The campaign is to educate smokers so they dispose of their cigarette butts responsibly.

The CHB Green Kiwi Trust Inc. and partners do not promote smoking but respect the right of choice.
