Happy #EarthDay! Did you miss our recent "Environmental Impact of E-cigs" session at #CleartheVapor conference? Check it out now on https://t.co/vlvwqCg5nS. Hear from experts at @UCSF & @PHealthLawCtr on toxicity of e-cig waste, environmental justice, and the role of @FDATobacco

“Today in America we have more kids addicted to nicotine than we have had in the last 20 years,” says Matt Myers of @TobaccoFreeKids. “We have to say to @POTUS and his team, ‘If you really care about kids, here’s an easy one for you.’” Ban flavors hooking our kids! #CleartheVapor

Tell @FDATobacco to end the sale of flavored tobacco products! The tobacco industry uses these products to addict kids. https://t.co/DALNzAiNaw #TakeDownTobacco

Today is the Day! Let's Take Down Tobacco!

Smoke-free areas in the Birmingham Health District help reduce smoke and vape exposure which can increase the risk of COVID-19. The district is a partnership with UAB, @uabmedicine, @vabirmingham, @childrensal, @cityofbhamal, @coopergreenmhs, @jcdhtweets, and @soresearchnews.

[Campaign for Tobacco-Free Kids @TobaccoFreeKids]

Shame on Big Tobacco for seeking to overturn California’s law stopping flavored tobacco products. Gov. Newsom is right: “This is Big Tobacco’s latest attempt to profit at the expense of our kids’ health. CA will continue to fight back & protect children.” https://t.co/BXC8QfgfQJ

Check out our Take Down Tobacco Alabama website! We hope teachers and community leaders find this resource useful in reaching middle and high school students virtually as we stay #SaferAtHome https://t.co/GP8Rncee46

Quitting e-cigarettes is a New Year’s resolution for almost half of young vapers. The latest campaign from @truthorange “Ready to Ditch JUUL” is helping them make 2020 the year they do it.

There’s an app for that? Not anymore! Glad to see a bold step taken by a highly influential company. #ytpbham #vapefree #escapethevape

[Dr. Kelly Henning @drkellyhenning]

Juul relied on tobacco industry research to create a product that lets kids inhale massive amounts of nicotine + leaves them craving even more. This is why we have a youth e-cigarette epidemic--and we can't trust Juul to end it. The @US_FDA must act now. https://t.co/wwVbPJ5y1m

Since they were introduced, the popularity of e-cigarettes has steadily grown. So too have the facts on how they're used and how they affect public health — our updated fact sheet explains. https://t.co/0XA6ggwtFS Find out where we stand on e-cigarettes: https://t.co/wLf7NKZNu4
