This Dress Is Smoking

According to excerpts from an AFP/Google news release -

Paris (France) student Flore Garcia Bour, 22, is picking up butts by the hundred from the streets and stitching them painstakingly into a dress in an effort to draw attention to the smelly detritus degrading the city's streets.

"I have always been revolted by the number of butts dropped on our streets while it would be simple to change habits and to put them into a rubbish bin," she told AFP.

Flore started stitching the dress on April 26 and plans to finish it on May 15 with cigarette butts collected in jars from all over the city, and treated to remove the evil smell. Let's hope she models the dress when she's finished. It was designed to accentuate her nice ash.

The Environmental Impact Of Smoking

What's the most littered item in American? How about that cigarette in your mouth.

Every year more than 360 billion cigarettes are smoked in the United States.

The butts from those cigarettes are the No. 1 littered item on U.S. roadways and the No. 1 item found on beaches and waterways worldwide, and they're not biodegradable.

Your nicotine addiction - kick it, don't flick it.
