Separation of trash, bottles/cans, and paper allows waste to go in proper receptacles, making it easy for people to make the right choice for the environment. Gets people thinking about when else they can recycle. @HMP403_PH#PHin48hours
Annually, 258 billion dollars is spent on cigarette advertisements, while 300 billion is spent to treat diseases linked to cigarettes. Medical system suffers because of the cigarette industry. Overall, these costs could be completely diminished if proper prevention was in place.
Although personal liberties must still be accounted for, there should be more regulations as to where people can legally smoke so secondhand smoke is diminished & hopefully help decrease use of cigarettes altogether. @HMP403_PH#phtopics_2017
We must target young people for anti smoking advertisements. Studies show if someone does not try a cigarette by age 24, they most likely never will. Early prevention is key to stopping the habit from forming. @HMP403_PH#phtopics_2017
Cigarette smokers are 25 times more likely to develop lung cancer than a non smoker. If a 25x higher chance of death is not making people stop, how will they? @HMP403_PH#phtopics_2017
@HMP403_PH Cigarette smoking is the leading preventable cause of death in the US. From a public health perspective, we must find why so many PREVENTABLE deaths are still occurring. #phtopics_2017
