Discarding an old-fashioned filterless cigarette like that is (probably) not too bad. There are nasty compounds in the tobacco, but it's all biodegradable, relatively quickly. The main problem is the cigarette butts from filter cigarettes, which have been the standard for decades. It's kinda stupid anyway. Smoking a known harmful substance, but oh let me filter it through this little piece of cellulose fiber wadding.
