The ABC's of Smoking
 Hopefully this site will give you the information you need to make
the right decision when someone else offers you that first cigarette! There are lot of informative web site links regarding
teen anti-smoking sites. Please use the Anti-Smoking links to educate yourself on the dangers of smoking.
I'll try to update this site often so make sure to check back!
As responsible people nowadays,we all need to set
examples for our youth. Getting the message across to them that smoking is not cool is very important.
The tobacco companies are shopping for new victims. Their goal is to get young people addicted to their lethal products in order to replace the more than 400,000 smokers who die each year. Each day, 3,000 kids become regular smokers. One third of them will die prematurely - from lung cancer, emphysema, heart disease or other tobacco-related illnesses. It's no mystery why this happens. The tobacco industry spends more than $7 billion each year (more than $18.6 million every day) to advertise and promote its deadly products. In short, by featuring happy and beautiful people in its ads, the industry seeks to make a dangerous, addictive habit like smoking appear fun, sexy and cool to youth. The fact is that without youth, the tobacco industry can't accomplish its goals--to replace dead customers and stay in business! Please go to the anti-smoking links for more information. There's something there for every age level!
