The effect packing has on young people.

Since joining D-MYST, it has opened my eyes to the tactics which tobacco companies deploy in order to sell their products to young people.


Tobacco companies deny that they are encouraging young people to smoke, and many people will say that the way in which tobacco companies market their products has little effect, but this couldn't be further from the truth, which is shown by the screenshot above taken by a D-MYST member. Plain packaging would definitely be a place to start in order to reduce smoking among young people.
