Cigarettes "greenbutts" are made with 100% biodegradable filters containing plants seeds inside, which will germinate and, instead of cigarette butts on the ground, flowers will spawn in place. These filters, made from a blend of natural materials such as cotton and flax, are degraded in one month, contrary to the ordinary filters of cellulose acetate, which takes about 15 years to degrade; then, the seed get in contact with the earth, where it will develop. The idea of the project is to reduce the pollution caused by cigarette butts to the environment.
