Surfrider is Helping to Create Butt-Free Beaches and Parks In Hawaii

"Over 360 volunteers collected more than 15,000 cigarette butts, 3,426 pieces of plastic and 1,386 pieces of foam — among the most littered items in the world, according to Surfrider coordinator Stuart Coleman. The purpose for the clean-up — besides malama-ing da aina — was to launch efforts to support statewide legislation for tobacco-free beaches and parks." - excerpt from article in Honolulu Civil Beat.
