Umm, no. Actually the filter part of cigarrette butts is fiberglass that
will not decompose for years, and the "paper" is plasticized to the
point where it will also not degrade easily either.
I think if you do a little research you will find the "fiberglass-in-the-filter" to
be an urban myth, "Don't smoke brand X, they have fiberglass in the filter and you'll
die of some horrible lung desease!"; right, like lung cancer is not a 'horrible' lung
desease. Sheese.
