Dangers of Secondhand Smoke Folding
Display |
|
This colorful folding display
makes it clear that secondhand smoke is a significant danger for anyone who
comes in contact with it. Each year in the United States, more than 53,000
non-smokers die because of diseases caused by exposure to secondhand smoke.
Perfect for classroom use, this eye-catching display reminds students that
environmental tobacco smoke—whether it comes from cigarettes, pipes, cigars
or bidis—contains so many harmful chemical compounds that the US
Environmental Protection Agency has labeled secondhand smoke as a “Class A”
carcinogen. Short-term damage from passive smoke is described, as well as
the unique dangers for children who live in homes with parents who smoke.
The “Anatomy of a Puff” section graphically identifies some of the 4,000
hazardous chemicals that are released into the air by a single burning
cigarette. Includes the real story of a non-smoker diagnosed with lung
cancer after years of working in a smoke-filled environment. Helpful tips
are provided for avoiding exposure to someone else’s secondhand smoke. Made
of high quality materials, the display measures 58” x 22” and can be
exhibited on a tabletop or folded flat for easy transportation.
