Why not address other major health issues DU students face?
• Secondhand smoke is an extremely important health issue because when people choose to smoke, they negatively impact the health of all people around them. • There is no safe level of exposure to secondhand smoke — secondhand smoke kills. • Outdoor levels of secondhand smoke are equally as harmful as indoor levels.19 • Even brief exposure to smoke as you’re walking into a building can cause or exacerbate heart disease, asthma, allergies, and bronchitis (not to mention the smell of smoke on clothes). • Hurricane-force winds could not eliminate the risk of secondhand outside.
