Ban filters to ban toxic waste! Cigarette butts are highly toxic and tough to clean up. Filters make tobacco products more appealing, while "eco-friendly" options undermine efforts to eliminate them. 🚭🌿 #BanCigaretteFilters #ToxicPlasticsFreePlanet #INC5 @AshOrg @exposetobacco @Le_Cnct @PartnershipFree @StopCorpAbuse @AfricaNoTobacco @CLAS_Saludable @ciel_tweets @UNEP

No safe way to recycle cigarette butts! Biodegradable filters are a dangerous gimmick, making smoking seem eco-friendly and luring youth into addiction. Let's ban filters, not greenwash them! 🚭🌱 #BanCigaretteFilters #StopGreenwashing #INC5 @AshOrg @exposetobacco @Le_Cnct @PartnershipFree @StopCorpAbuse @AfricaNoTobacco @CLAS_Saludable @ciel_tweets @UNEP

Exclusion must be explicit! Mentioning WHO FCTC isn’t enoughβ€”without clear rules, environment officials may turn to Big Tobacco for "expertise." The plastics treaty must prohibit their influence entirely. 🚫🌍 #NoTobaccoInTreaty #ProtectThePlanet #INC5 @AshOrg @exposetobacco @Le_Cnct @PartnershipFree @StopCorpAbuse @AfricaNoTobacco @CLAS_Saludable @ciel_tweets

The success of the future plastics treaty hinges on its integrity and freedom from corporate influence. Tobacco, a leading source of plastic pollution, underscores why the treaty must incorporate FCTC principles like Article 5.3 to prevent conflicts of interest; as emphasized by GGTC's Deborah Sy in her latest co-authored article. #INC5 #PlasticPollution #FCTC

Cigarette butts = #1 littered item! 4.5 trillion butts pollute our world yearly, taking 10+ years to degrade. Filters harm health, ecosystems, and economies. It's time to ban filters and hold polluters accountable. 🌍🚭 #StopTobaccoPollution #BanFilters #INC5 @AshOrg @exposetobacco @Le_Cnct @PartnershipFree @StopCorpAbuse @AfricaNoTobacco @CLAS_Saludable @ciel_tweets

Integrity matters! To protect public health and the planet, the plastics treaty must keep Big Tobacco out of all policy processes. 🌍🚫 #NoTobaccoInTreaty #HealthyPlanet #INC5 @AshOrg @exposetobacco @Le_Cnct @PartnershipFree @StopCorpAbuse @AfricaNoTobacco @CLAS_Saludable @ciel_tweets
