Dear friends,
In #Spain today a law took effect that will force #tobacco companies to pay the cost of cleaning up discarded #cigarette butts.

Good! The discarded filter tips carry toxins into the #environment and are especially toxic to #marine life. The #plastic polycellulose acetate filters are technically #biodegradeable, but it can take years and years.

ヘ⁠(╹⁠◡╹⁠ヘ⁠) I see #popotillo is vacant here, so I'd like to introduce everyone to this #criticallyendangered #Mesoamerican #folkart made of beeswax and naturally dyed broom straw. It has roots in the #prehispanic craft of feather mosaics, but for the past few hundreds of years we've used the peduncle of the sporobolus s.wrightii grass to make mosaics. This delicate #art catches the light like a gemstone, yet is 100% #Biodegradeable and a great alternative to perler beads and diamond painting!
