Tobacco industry and its deadly strategies - Smoking harms people and nature

- A film about the world of smoke and ecological deserts; about the cultivation of tobacco and its disastrous effects on Africa’s farmers and youth. Smoking has become less of a threat to the health of the developed world. Although consumer habits and cultivation have drastically changed in the northern hemisphere, the smoking industry now endangers the health of the rest of the world. A caravan of smoking cowboys and friendly camels invade Asian and African countries, carrying promises of a consumers’ paradise overseas. The souls of indigenous women and teenagers are conquered throughout the Third World , while the strategies of the tobacco industry choke local economies, leading them straight into misery. Smoking causes serious health problems, not only to each individual, but also to the planet itself: Smoking creates deserts. The expanding cultivation of tobacco requires razing of entire forests, both for new farmland and as source of fuel for drying tobacco leaves. The habit of smoking is causing ecological change of global dimensions.

Maybe the sales tax from Africa grown crops needs to go towards paying the growers a liveable wage
Marlborough pack cover represents the "White, Black and Red Illuminati brotherhood's" set on the background of the Great Pyramid.
No no no you’ve got a good point
Only in africa
The African sun ain't hot enough to dry tobacco!
Maybe corporations are the problem if you do all the work you should get all the money. You ever considered making your own brand and export based on supply and demand? If you got the only pack of cigarettes in the qorld somone will fucking fly there and paying you 1 million dollars for one cigar
See they blaming the germans like Germany smokes all the cigarettes from Africa
Maybe the tobacco should no longer be dried on the farm either way they gonna buy that shit and then2npennies a ton price aint gonna fall
Why they don't grow corn!
Because they were lured into planting tobacco instead. Lured by the big tobacco companies, who now want cheap labor and new markets.
I guarantee you dont have to dry your own tobacco
Is anyone gonna point t out that they just blamed africans problems on Germany
They cannot blame british american tobacco
You can't tell me the African in America would not help these people with them big ass paychecks they get from affirmative action.
You own all the worlds resources yet your poor sounds like your incompetent.
They have been colonized and cheated, by the industry of ours.
