Monaco has launched the 16th edition of its “Monaco, Zero Cigarette Butts” awareness campaign, encouraging smokers to help protect the environment by using pocket ashtrays. The initiative highlights the environmental impact of discarded cigarette ends, noting that a single cigarette butt can pollute up to 500 litres of water and may take around ten years to decompose naturally. Pocket ashtrays are available free of charge at Monaco Town Hall, the Media Library, the Tourist and Convention Authority information points, the Police Headquarters reception desk, and, new for 2026, beneath the awning of the Condamine Market next to the shared library.
