How not to start?

Tobacco kills!
Each year Tobacco is responsible for thousands of deaths. One out of ten smokers sees their life expectancy lowered by 20 years. Tobacco causes many diseases, as well as cancer.

Tobacco is expensive!
Whether bought in packs or hand-rolled, cigarettes are expensive and can quickly put young people or even whole families into debt. Diseases caused by tobacco lead to huge health expenditures for taxpayers and government health systems.

Tobacco distorts!
It reduces the senses of taste and smell.

Tobacco damages the body inside as well as outside!
Tobacco can lead to respiratory failure and can harm one’s physical capacities causing impotence for men and ectopic pregnancy, spontaneous abortions, for women. Tobacco also dulls the hair and withers the skin.

Tobacco is a drug!
Tobacco rapidly generates a form of addiction that is very hard to escape. Even the first cigarette, often lit to be part of a group, can be dangerous.

Tobacco is an open door to other dependencies!
Those addicted to alcohol or other drugs, whether soft or hard, often started using these by first becoming addicted to tobacco.

Tobacco is harmful for those close to the smoker!
Besides the annoyance suffered by those close to a smoker, smoke causes discomfort and immediate or long term diseases. Children, in particular, are vulnerable to other people’s smoke.

Tobacco is out of fashion!
Young people often associate tobacco with an adolescent form of rebellion against authority. Smoking is also forbidden in many public places and has become an act that now needs to be carried out secretly, in isolation, while clearly knowing the dangers one is exposing oneself to. Smokers can also appear irresponsible, individualistic, and uncaring for those around them.
