Share icon Share Checkmark Link copied! Share icon Share Modal close ADVERTISEMENT UK organization Hubbub plans to clean up the streets of London through its #neatstreets campaign. One clever project sees smokers vote on various topics by placing their cigarette butts into clear divided containers in public areas; another uses devices that play music when a cigarette butt is inserted; and yet another encourages gum-chewers to connect the dots on specially designed boards. “Our public polling discovered that a staggering 86 per cent of people think littering is a disgusting habit yet only 15 per cent of us would actually confront someone and tell them that,” the organization writes on its webpage. “This is why from May to October we’re trialling a new approach to tackling littering on Villiers Street, Westminster, using the latest thinking on behaviour change and awareness raising from around the world.”More info: hubbub.org.uk | Facebook | Instagram | Twitter (h/t: coomaexpress, eveningstandard) Vote with your buttShare iconImage credits: Charlie ElliottShare iconImage credits: Sarah E ClarkeStick your gum on to reveal the imageShare iconImage credits: Design WeekShare iconADVERTISEMENTADVERTISEMENTImage credits: Catherina JonesShare iconImage credits: Jeannine Saba Ic_puzzle Games View all games Anyone can write on Bored Panda.

I used to smoke and drop my butts, but after I saw a documentary about the harm the plastic in the filters was doing to the environment, I started using a portable covered ashtray, small enough to fit on my key ring. At least I was keeping my disgusting butts from the drainage system. Then I quit smoking. Best thing ever!
