Plain cigarette packaging to be introduced to discourage smoking

[White Christmas13]

That will fix it

Almost all of these pictures could be shown on the 500.000 food stalls burning tons of charcoal every day in Bangkok, on public buses, 2 stroke motorcycles, at the entrance of backyard factories, tug boats, and ferries, glyphosate container, asbestos panels, etc.etc.

Or is this crackpot idea just an attempt in support of family members of a minister who happen to run a printing company?

Perhaps more an idea to lower the 7 million people a year who die from smoking (50% of smokers die as a result of that smoking).  That there are other issues that need to be corrected is undeniable - but smoking is directly preventable and trying to prevent this should not even be in question.  The smoker will likely die from it - those around are subject to the same toxins and many will also die and everyone pays the price for the medical care required 

 

Yes I was a smoker and am very ashamed for it - and likely paying the personal cost.  But I can never repay the harm to others.
