Something that bothers me that I don't think people realize is cigarette litter. It is appallingly hideous and bad for the environment. Besides the fact that smoking releases toxic chemicals into the air, cigarette filters take a terribly long time - decades - to degrade because they are made of acetate, not cotton.
In addition to the websites below, you can search "cigarette litter" to find out more facts about this disgusting epidemic.

I live right near a river. Many people have respiratory problems including allergies and sinus problems. When traveling out west, I have heard many people say that their problems were not noticeable and reoccurred when they came back home. So, I know that something is really wrong with our environment. Plus we have power plants that pollute the air nearby.

The enviroment is a poor, poor place.People kill trees for paper and then dont recycle.I love this world and if people dont have the guts to respect the place they live in , then they cant respect nature or anything else around them.
