    That's interesting but also surprising. The first time I was in Italy in 2010, I clearly remember watching secondary school students going to school in Vico Aquense, near Naples. At least half of them were smoking as were adults walking in the street. Cigarettes in Italy were then around 3.50 a pack (here cigarettes are over $1 each and the smoking rates for adults are around 13% and for 12 to 17 y.o. 5%).
    Seems the govt. in Italy have no interest in trying to combat cigarettes on health grounds. We were back there earlier last year and nothing had changed.

      I am under similar restrictions here in Salt Lake City, my area is a natural bowl area where we suffer from smog inversions during the winter. Each day is evaluated and then a color code is sent out via television. radio, social media. Red day means no wood burning allowed unless it is your primary source of heat or cooking. Is wood burning the source of the smog, most likely not.......it is all of the cars, industry and lack of public trans use in our area. But it is what is it. I am willing to do my part and not burn if it helps (LOL - I really don't want the fine). Oh well.
