Will nasty pics stop people smoking?
Images to stop people smoking The latest idea to stop people smoking is plastering a series of nasty-looking pictures of what can happen to people if they smoke on packets of cigarettes. Images of diseased lungs and rotten teeth are among those that may be used, alongside warnings in words about lung cancer and heart disease. So will the photos make a difference, or will people just ignore them? Do you think they’ll help someone you know stop smoking?, or maybe you’ve already started and think the pics will help you give up.

It will make a great impact on people’s attitudes over smoking. Just think how many teenagers will hesitate now. It’s a brilliant idea.” Rosie, 13, Carlisle, England “I have a serious lung condition. I think if people were to go into a lung ward, that would stop them smoking.”
