General Description of Activity
A lot of tobacco use begins in the bathroom. Post messages in the bathroom designed to remind teens of the dangers of tobacco use. The messages would be written on an 8 1/2" x 11" sheet of paper. Remember don't pick on smokers! They are the victims. Demonize Big Tobacco with our key messages:

  • Ingredients in tobacco products: arsenic, lead, formaldehyde, ammonia, benzene, etc. (see list on Make Your Own Cigarette or Make Your Own Dip)
  • 1 in 5 West Virginians will die from tobacco use
  • 4,200 West Virginians will die every year from tobacco use
  • Tobacco products are more addictive than heroin
