Small pic cig butt disposal

You must be at least 19 years old to participate in this challenge.  We are also ONLY interested in responses from people who currently smoke cigarettes.

Cigarettes are the most littered item worldwide and make up more than one third of all collected litter annually.  Discarded cigarette butts are more than just an eyesore - they have a significant impact on our environment!  They release toxic chemicals into the environment with the potential to poison animals and contaminate water.  Moreover, most cigarette butts contain non-biodegradable plastic fibers that take years to decompose.  Given the gravity of the problem, what should be done to reduce cigarette butt littering for our environment?
