  4. Cigarette Smoking: An Assessment of Tobacco's Global Environmental

    While the health effects of cigarette smoking are well recognized and documented, the environmental impacts of tobacco are less appreciated and often overlooked. Here, we evaluate tobacco's global footprint across its entire supply chain, looking at resource needs, waste, and emissions of the full cradle-to-grave life cycle of cigarettes.

  11. Exposure to environmental tobacco smoke (ETS) and risk of lung cancer

    Background The objective of the present study was to examine the association between environmental tobacco smoke (ETS) and risk of lung cancer among never smokers, defined as subjects who smoked less than 100 cigarettes in their lifetime. Methods We conducted a population-based case-control study on lung cancer in Montreal, Canada (1996-2000) including 1,203 cases and 1513 controls. The ...

  12. Effects of environmental tobacco smoke exposure on brain functioning in

    Introduction Brain functioning, as indexed by event-related potentials (ERPs) representing smoking cue reactivity, inhibitory control, and reward processing, has been found to be compromised in smokers. However, whether environmental tobacco smoke (ETS) exposure in never smokers results in similar brain changes is unknown.

  13. Environmental tobacco smoke research published in the journal Indoor

    Using evidence from tobacco industry documents, we examine the industry associations of the Society's executive, the journal's editor and board, and the extent to which the journal publishes papers on environmental tobacco smoke that would be deemed favourable by the tobacco industry.
