Consumer groups urge inclusivity in fight for smoke-free society
CONSUMER groups have urged the World Health Organization to include smokers, vapers and the tobacco industry in its quest to end the global smoking problem. “The WHO tends to just attack the industry, which is a black-and-white thing for them,” said Martin Cullip, an international fellow at The Taxpayers Protection Alliance’s (TPA) Consumer Center. “But they don’t look at the complexities behind what they’re doing. And in attacking industry, they’re forgetting the people underneath who are affected.”
