Cigarette butts — not plastic — are the biggest contaminant and the most littered item around the world. When they’re left in the grass and soil, they stop plants from growing, and when they’re left in the water, they poison the living organisms in it. A group of French teenagers decided it’s high time to take action and make their own impact to help the environment — with a #FillTheBottle challenge. Their contribution turned into an inspiring campaign that gathered people around the world to help save the planet. It’s simple and effective — just collect cigarette butts that you find and fill a bottle with them.
