Alcohol and Cigarette smoking
Apr 4 2008, 1:18 AM EDT | Post edited: Apr 4 2008, 1:18 AM EDT
My idea for the summit involves 3 areas alcohol, cigarette smoking and the
public health system in Australia. Australia is facing a crisis at the moment in regards to an increasing
population and a public health system struggling to cope with demand because in part to a lack of funding. In order to help fund the health system i would like to see legislation put in place where ciggarette manufacturers and alcohol companies put a percentage of their profits on an annual basis
into Australias public health system. Binge drinking is becoming more aparent among our youth and so I would also propose that alcohol advertising be prohibited at sporting events and on television in the same manner cigarette advertising was stopped some years ago. Limiting the promotion of alcohol would be a step in the right direction to help solve the problem of binge drinking.

Nicotine addiction is an uncontrollable dependence on the highly addictive nicotine stimulant present in tobacco products. Nicotine alters the levels of certain chemicals in the brain that causes smokers to experience pleasurable changes to mood and concentration. When a smoker stops smoking they crave the nicotine effects and can suffer withdrawal symptoms such as anxiety, depression and irritable.
