世界禁煙デー




The theme of World No Tobacco Day 2009 is
"Tobacco Health Warnings", with an emphasis on the picture warnings
that have been shown to be particularly effective at making people
aware of the health risks of tobacco use and convincing them to quit.
More and more countries are fighting back against the epidemic of tobacco
by requiring that packages of tobacco show the dangers of the product's use,
as called for in guidelines to the WHO Framework Convention on Tobacco Control.

emphasis  強調、重要視
convincing  説得力のある、人を納得させる
epidemic  蔓延
require  必要とする、要求する
