Tobacco
is Australia's No.1 preventable cause of death and disease.
Every
year, active smoking kills
over 15,500 people -
and secondhand exposure kills up to 2,000 more, including at least one child
every 10 days.
Tobacco costs
the nation
over $31 billion - far more than the tax it raises.
ASH
Australia (Action on Smoking and Health)
aims to drive smoking rates down, extend smokefree areas
and end tobacco
promotion.
