Litter is always caused by people. It is waste in the wrong place which ruins the appearance of our towns and countryside. Litter has many forms and many sources, from a sweet wrapper thrown on the street to a dumped bag of rubbish or a fly-tipped load of demolition rubble.
Researchers suggest that the recent ban on indoor smoking may be part of the problem. This type of litter is literally toxic to the environment. Chemicals in cigarettes such as arsenic, nicotine, lead and ethyl phenol could seep into salt and fresh water and be extremely dangerous to aquatic micro-organisms and fish. Even their packaging poses risks.
