Tobacco – damaging the world and it’s people
Tobacco is not just a threat to human health but also a major threat to sustainable global development. This presentation summarises the key environmental impacts of the tobacco industry - from the cultivation of tobacco plants to the manufacture, sale and disposal of butts and boxes. Quitting really helps to reduce this damage but there are other policies and action that will help.

1:40 pm - 1:55 pm
There’s no such thing as ‘health behaviours’: smoking and cessation as cultural and social practices
Smoking is tied up with family, friendship groups and local belonging. How should cessation services be organised to acknowledge and address this? I will talk about residential segregation, ‘smoking islands’ and intergenerational smoking.
Speaker
