Trading Butts for Beer?

Published on 25 August 2020 at 23:08

Wrong butts, as you probably thought it was about people's butts. 

Nothing like that here, as the Tibu-ron bar in Castelldefels near Barcelona has an idea to get rid of the polution left behind. The university of Anglia Ruskin in Cambridge has found that cigarette butts are more contaminent then plastic straws.

So to do something about that, the bar is giving away free beers to people who bring back a full glass of cigarette butts. Sound strange? yet  it seems to be working.

In recent summers, the bar has also collected thousands of caps that have been sold for recycling to raise funds for charities that help fight childhood cancers.

Bar owners hope others follow in their footsteps and offer beach-goers incentives to keep the sands pollution free. Not only will this reduce pollution from littering but hopefully improve beach experience overall as well.

 

Keep those great "Beer" ideas coming.
