The Moment of Tobacco Safety
By: Scott

The Movement of Tobacco safety started in the mid 1960 ’s and continues today. The movement has changed or saved the lives of countless people. The sale of tobacco started in the USA when Indian tribes were here and went global. It still goes on today. It will probably go on for years maybe decades or possibly centuries.
Did you know a cigarette company used no tobacco and instead was made of lettuce? Since it didn’t have tobacco in it, it failed to sell. This info tells you only cigars and cigarettes with tobacco sell and are wanted. The people that smoked before 1964 thought it was a medicine for everything. They thought it was a miracle drug. They did not know that it harmed there body. It was depressing that it killed them and they had know idea what it was.

Mirza Shiraz was born in Shiraz on 1914.He is widely known for his verdict ( a decision of the critics ) against the usage of tobacco in what became known as the Tobacco Protest in the Qajar era. Mirza’s real name is Mirza Mohammed Hassan Husseini Shirazi. His famous name is Mirza Shiraz. He led protests against drug usage. He died the year of 1981.

7.3% of mixed races smoke all over the world. Every day more smoke. So many people die or get sick all because of smoking. 1.875% of smokers die every year. 3.0% of people join smoking and 2.0% quit. In 1965 42% of the world smoked, that went down to 18% in 2012, and now its at 7.3% of the world on 11/25/14. I am proud of the people who quit. 34.7% of the world quit smoking. From this data it says that tobacco safety movements take a huge part, and grown ups quit when they gain responsibility.

Kerala High Court former judge Justice K Narayana Kurup began the Anti-Tobacco Campaign at the Sports Authority of India – Lakshmibai National College for Physical Education (SAI-LNCPE), Kariavattom on Monday. He announced a gathering of staff and students at the SAI-LNCPE and spoke on the need to lower down on the tobacco usage in the country. Kurup spoke about how he had been strict (enforce directly) about banning smoking in public places through a landmark judgment while serving on the Bench in the High Court of Kerala. “The greatest danger to humans today is not natural disasters. It is tobacco products and smoking” he said. He also sought (attempt to find) the cooperation of the younger generation in spreading awareness about the dangers of smoking tobacco, which kills millions every year. In his address, Kishore lauded (praise a person or their achievements highly) Kurup’s sincere efforts in the lead against smoking. Professor Sreenarayana Kurup welcomed the chief guest and the gathering and George Mathews proposed (put forward) the vote of thanks.

Bihar government takes command on the ban of tobacco! The Bihar government on Friday 2014 October announced a ban on tobacco and its products to ward (push off) off its ill effects on citizens (people who live in government). The CM ( nickname for group ) also said that tax on tobacco and its products would be enhanced (gained, added more to). The state at present imposes 30 per cent tax on tobacco and its products and sources in Excise department said there was a proposal (added to) to double it up. Bihar becomes the ninth state to impose (make) ban on tobacco sale. In a bid to strictly enforce no smoking in government offices and public places, the CM ordered officials to launch special drive . He said action would be taken against officials if violation of ban was witnessed in offices and public places. Manjhi administered oath (promise) to children at a programme on the occasion in Gandhi maidan that they would not touch tobacco and its products throughout life. He asked students to dissuade (persuade negatively) their family members and friends if they consume (eat or drink) tobacco products.

India steps up tobacco warnings to combat nearly 1 million deaths!!! India has stepped up efforts to curb nearly 1 million tobacco-related deaths a year by issuing new rules to embolden (strengthen) the health warnings on tobacco packets and make the country one of the world’s strictest (enforce directly) in terms of tobacco labelling. But while regulators (a person or thing) try to crack down on branded (types) cigarettes and similar products, there is still a vast unregulated (not controlled or supervised by law) market for tobacco in India. And it’s far from clear that slapping warnings on cigarette packs will have much impact on health.

 

Cigars and cigarettes will destroy your lungs on the inside. Heres a picture of what it looks like.

The smokers lung is terrible. Healthy lung is somebody who doesn’t smoke. There both nasty but one is healthy. That is what is in your body. There is a difference, good lung and bad lung.  What if you smoked and it showed on the out side. Nobody would want to look at you. I’m not going to show you a picture, though there are pictures. Here is a web site if you want to see http://shiftucc.wordpress.com/2014/03/01/the-smoking-gun/.
