What’s happening in Australia?
1. Coles nationally have sold 340,000 BUTTsOUTs over 15 months. That is an excellent sales result – an average of just under 5,000 per week. Coles and Bi-Lo supermarkets and selected Coles Express, Theo’s, Vintage Cellars and Liquorland outlets all support the campaign. Not only have Australian smokers demonstrated their willingness to pay for their own BUTTsOUTs to prevent butt littering but Planet Ark, Clean Up Australia and Landcare Australia all benefit financially from the initiative. It’s a record that demonstrates again how Australians can lead the way in caring for the environment.
2. BUTTsOUT campaigns have extended across the globe now – some 500 campaigns in 16 countries. We’ve been asked to assist councils, universities, companies, tourism centres, golf courses from locations as diverse as Bermuda to the USA, Malta to South Africa, Canada to Israel and more. Exporting Australia’s environmental expertise seems to be in continued demand. Contact us for more details
