Hello everyone! 🚭

How's it going?

For many people, tobacco is part of daily life: whether as a smoker, ex-smoker, or someone affected by second-hand smoke. Despite anti-tobacco campaigns and regulations, smoking remains a major public health issue.

Do you have any personal experience with tobacco and quitting it, or helping others to quit?

How do you feel about tobacco industry lobbying and public health policies around smoking?

I am not a fan of tobacco products. Tobacco is on our pre-nuptial agreement. No Tobacco Products ever!

My mothers last few years were miserable because of her continued use of tobacco products. She suffered from COPD and was tied to an oxygen tank for the last 10+ years of her life. She quit in her late 50's but it was already too late.

When a smoker comes near me, I can immediately tell they smoke simply from the order the emit.

We do not hang around smokers for that reason.
