"Since 2021, the number of consumed snus cans has increased by 15 percent if we count both brown and white snus (=nicotine pouches). However, brown snus decreased by 8 percent, while white snus more than doubled," says Mats Ramstedt, head of research at CAN.

What can be done to protect youth? Governments should implement in full the WHO FCTC and take action against products and marketing that clearly appeal to youth. Read the report to learn about the other solutions. #TobaccoExposed https://t.co/YgAqaNlyIL

The tobacco industry is a waste generator. Every stage, from tobacco cultivation and curing to cigarette production, distribution, and disposal, generates waste and emissions.

Finnish Medical Journal: "The central goal of cancer prevention is to minimize the use of tobacco products. The current government's policy appears highly irresponsible in allowing the use of nicotine pouches in Finland and unconstitutional to the extent that the constitution obligates public authorities to promote the health of the population."

[Tobacco Free Finland @TobaccoFreeFin]

📌 One in three cases of oral cancer is linked to smokeless tobacco products.
📌 The constitution obligates public authorities to promote the health of the population – allowing nicotine pouches appears to contradict the constitution.

Finlands Läkartidning; "Det centrala målet i arbetet med att bekämpa cancer är att minimera användningen av tobaksprodukter. Den nuvarande regeringens linje framstår som mycket oansvarig genom att tillåta användning av #nikotinpåsar i Finland och som stridande mot grundlagen i den mån som grundlagen förpliktar de offentliga myndigheterna att främja befolkningens hälsa."

Violence against women is a pervasive #HumanRights violation globally.
It happens in every country and culture but can be prevented if we:

Could problematic tobacco product litter also help fuel consumer demand? An IGTC study released earlier this year assessed the presence of branded tobacco product litter in urban environments and its implication as a form of post-consumption marketing. https://t.co/rYAzBv2O9a

Today, December 10th, #HumanRightsDay, we celebrate the international rights that are guaranteed to every individual. Tobacco and nicotine products negatively impact the right to life, health, education, children’s rights and women’s rights, plus many others. Our obligation is to strive for the world without those products. @unfairtobacco @AshOrg @TheGGTC @exposetobacco @enspbrussels @PartnershipFree

In Sweden, the use of #nicotine products among young people has increased significantly, and with nicotine addiction, #cigarette use has also risen. The new report calls for stricter regulation of Sweden's liberal nicotine policy through legislation. Sweden's path must be rejected in Finland!

[Tobacco Free Finland @TobaccoFreeFin]

I #Sverige har användningen av #nikotinprodukter bland unga ökat kraftigt, och med nikotinberoendet har även #cigarettanvändningen ökat. Rapporten kräver en skärpning av Sveriges fria nikotinpolitik genom lagstiftning. Sveriges väg måste stoppas i Finland!

Cigarette filters, plastic waste and #1 most-littered item in the world, have no health benefits. Tobacco companies´deception of filter ventilation created greater harm by increasing and deepening inhalation, leading to greater exposure to tobacco carcinogens. #PlasticsTreaty #INC5 @exposetobacco
