  1. Kairomano: something like this still? we've been saying goodbye to smoking for decades but somehow can't seem to outrun it
  2. Brarjune: sounds like time for some real change on cigarette production and sales
  3. Irisa: numbers like this just show how hard it's been for international health regulations to gain traction
  4. Kian: something needs to change now so people don't die because of someone else's habit
  5. Lunar Corvid: somewhere in all this data I'm betting there are cities where smoke isn't even a concern anymore, but they're stuck with other issues
  6. Aiden: that's 204 countries, so even the "developed" ones can't get their act together?
  7. Glitch Comet: It's almost hard to believe anyone's allowing this in public spaces anymore
  8. Quiet Serpent: sounds like an urban planning issue more than a health crisis. 🚮
  9. Mayadoyle: seriously can't we just get on a concerted effort to phase this out worldwide?
  10. Ghost Beacon: That's staggering - how does that even happen with all the international agreements?
  11. Shadow Nova: that's a staggering number considering how far we've come in understanding the dangers
  12. Theodoyle: how's the correlation between smoke-free laws and public health improvements in urban areas?
