Anti-tobacco movements

Anti-tobacco movements are initiatives aimed at reducing tobacco use and its health risks. They include public awareness campaigns, government policies like taxes and smoking bans, and advocacy for healthier lifestyles. These efforts inform people about the dangers of smoking, such as cancer and heart disease, and work to create environments where smoking is less convenient and acceptable. The movement seeks to protect public health by decreasing tobacco consumption, especially among youth and vulnerable populations, and ultimately reduce tobacco-related illness and death worldwide.
