Abstract:
Tobacco use by youth is a serious problem that can be handled by the combined attention of parents, youth advocates, health professional and youths themselves. Tobacco related addictions kill over 2,000,000 people worldwide every year and over 8,000 people in North Carolina. The best way to end such killings is to focus on prevention. Adolescents themselves can become leading advocates for a smokefree society and a healthier North Carolina for all of us.
