France has banned smoking in public. France's health minister said public places are for children "to play, learn, and breathe; not for smoking". The ban will protect children from passive smoking. This is breathing in the "second-hand" smoke from smokers. France wants a tobacco-free generation by 2032.
Smoking is falling in France. However, passive smoking still kills many people. Most French people support a smoking ban in restaurants. Smoking can damage nearly every organ of the body. The smoke harms children's bodies. When children breathe in second-hand smoke, they can have breathing problems.
Back to the tobacco-free generation lesson.
