A little more background:

My friends and I have been saving the cigarette butts we collect so we can send them in to be recycled. This is about ~2 months worth of butts from 4 blocks on Polk Street, in SF.

We created a map of all the cigarette butts we collected our first month. We then set up cigarette disposals at the spots. Plug for our project: www.rubbish.love

Here is more info on how to recycle your cigarette butts for anyone who is interested
