At least over in Taiwan they are willing to address this issue. Yet here in the US, this is STILL swept under the rug.
Ironically enough we're constantly bombarded to death with countless anti-smoking campaigns. Yet the issue of air pollution and other environmental threats (a FAR greater health threat than cigarette smoke, IMO) continue to go unacknowleged and unaddressed.
