禁煙

★現在のたばこに関して★
現時代、喫煙による若者の健康被害は深刻になっています。
喫煙は世界中で死亡原因となっており、予防が必要です。たばこを吸うことで死亡率が高くなり、喫煙者では30%から50%が死亡するという深刻な報告があるにもかかわらず、たばこの販売は禁止されていません。
世界的には、18歳にならないうちに喫煙を始める人が多く、うちおよそ4分の1は10歳のときに喫煙を始めています。たばこを吸い始める年齢が若いほど、常習喫煙者になりやすく、禁煙が難しくなります。
若者を喫煙による危機から遠ざけるために、今年の世界禁煙デーのキャンペーンは「若者とたばこ」をテーマに開催されます。
若者が喫煙を始め、たばこ常習者になることを防ぐために、国ができる有効な対策は、たばこ産業によるたばこの間接・直接の広告活動を禁止する事です。
