Vandals repeatedly broke locks on cigarette butt containers along the Ventura beach promenade, sometimes dumping out the carefully stored cigarettes and sometimes stealing the entire container.
Adding to the litter prevention program’s woes, a wrong-way driver exiting the nearby parking garage drove onto the promenade and destroyed a bench made from those recycled cigarette butts. The bench was dedicated to the memory of Paul Herzog, a coordinator for the Surfrider Foundation, which collects from those cigarette containers and mails the butts to TerraCycle for recycling.
Nevertheless, the nonprofit Surfrider Foundation, undaunted, is expanding its cigarette butt collection program, according to Bill Hickman, the foundation’s senior regional manager for Central California, which includes Ventura County.

Contact lens company Bausch + Lomb is taking bold action to address a unique yet growing issue: contact lens and packaging waste. Through its innovative ONE by ONE and Biotrue Eye Care recycling programs, the company has already diverted over 464,000 pounds of materials from U.S. landfills and waterways since 2016.
To address this issue, Bausch + Lomb launched its ONE by ONE Recycling Program in 2016. This initiative allows consumers to drop off used lenses, blister packs, and top foils at nearly 14,000 optometry practices across the U.S. Once collected, the materials are sent to TerraCycle®, where they are cleaned and repurposed into new products.
