CCAP Honors Plastic Free July! Keep our tribal lands free from tobacco product waste!
The harmful effects of cigarette filters on the environment and on our bodies cannot be ignored. With over 7000 toxic chemicals and microplastics, they are the most littered item in the world. These microplastics pose a significant threat to our health, causing issues such as infertility and DNA mutations. Protect the health and wellness of our community. Keep our tribal lands free from tobacco product waste.

Imagine what it's like to sit in a 90-degree apartment without A/C and not be able to open the windows because the smoking ban is not enforced and smoke drifts from the neighbor's unit. That's what it's like at @ParkLaBreaApt. #Smokefree #DangerousTemps #Heatwave
