Cigarettes are the most littered item in the world. It dawned on me recently, thanks to that little tracker in my sig, that aside from all the benefits we usually talk and preach about we are also doing a great service to the environment. It can take up to 10 years or longer for a cigarette filter to decompose. On top of that, they leach all those nasty chemicals into the ground or wherever they are discarded. If I was still smoking analogs, which I would be if not for e-cigs, I would have discarded 1900+ cigarette filters that would be destined for landfills. Between my wife and I, the number over 4000 and we're only talking a couple of months. Collectively, on this board alone, that number becomes astronmical and powerful.
I'm curious if environmental activist groups have been made aware of the deep, positive impact e-cigarettes have on the physical environment? Having an ally such as that would bring more publicity and political muscle. Any thoughts?
