This site gave one paragraph but the paragraph gave some statistics that we can use in our research. One of the stats being "The results indicate that the chemicals released into freshwater environments from cigarette butts are lethal to Daphnia at concentrations of 0.125 cigarette butts per liter (one butt per two gallons of water)." It also states how the butts can end up in the water.

This site was good because it gave percentages of what cigarette butts were littered. I also like it because it also gives statistics about the smoke that is emitted from actually smoking the cigarette which I’m sure we can incorporate some how in our project.

This article just gave straight facts about the cigarette waste and why it is considered toxic. One fact that we are going to further research is “It can take up to 12 years for a cigarette butt to break down.” The facts shown on this page are crucial to our project.
