That's like asking why shooters leave their shells and broken targets lying around. What you're really asking is, "how come smokers are a representative sample of the population instead of only the ones that aren't littering assholes?"
I save for reloading and I pick up my broken and used targets because only an assface leaves a mess at the range
And i have never been driving or cycling and seen brass shell casings tossed from the vehicle ahead of me, bouncing along the pavement, throwing sparks in July.
What they need to don is stop making that shit out of toxic fiberglass shit that never degrades. You can easily make a filter out of some more natural material, like unrefined cotton.
Funny thing I learned in a class on wildland fire management: cigarettes can't start fires in fines (pine needles, leaves, dry grass) unless the humidity is below 20%. So immediately the class asks the instructor why there are so many fires started by cigarettes, then. He says, "when you're a fire investigator and you're at the ignition point and can't determine a precise cause, there's guaranteed to be a cigarette butt nearby. Nobody ever got fired for declaring the cause to be a discarded cigarette."
I dont know about ranges, but people leave huge messes on public land. I have miles of state timber land just a couple hundred yards from my house and theres a gravel pit right there on the corner of my road. People shoot there regularly and leave shit everywhere, drives me nuts. Fucking slobs.
Assface and niggers have the same amount of letters, you have not saved any efforts by making that word choice.
Never seen a nigger at the range before. I thought they got their practice shooting each other at parks or outside liquor stores
I see cigarette butts in places where there is no other litter. Smokers are far more likely to litter than normal people.
Did you ever consider that it's because people litter everywhere, but the people who clean it up don't pick up cigarettes butts? It's impossible to get them with pickers.
You should move to somewhere cleaner. I have only seen people picking up litter in two places: highways, and big cities. Pretty much everywhere else is naturally litter-free, except for cigarette butts.
