Cigarette Butt Redemption Value to Incentivize Their Cleanup
- From the San Diego Chapter of the Surfrider Foundation: "Host a cleanup this week and bring your sorted cigarette butts to Pacific Beach on Saturday to be redeemed for cash or a Surfrider donation! RippleLife's grassroots project offers the first ever Butt Redemption Value (BRV) to incentivize the collection of cigarette butts the same way bottles, cans, and other recyclables are. It's a chance to clean up our big blue playground, stop the damage cigarette butts inflict upon our eco-systems, and possibly give cigarette butts a better second life." - More from the San Diego Chapter web site.
