| Résumé : | Tobacco is the single largest cause of avoidable death; it accounts for over half a million deaths each year in the European Union. It is estimated that 25% of all cancer deaths and 15% of all deaths in the Union could be attributed to smoking. In order to curb this epidemic, the EU is actively developing a comprehensive tobacco control policy. This is characterised by legislative measures, support for Europe-wide smoking prevention and cessation activities, mainstreaming tobacco control into a range of other Community policies (e.g. the domains of agriculture, taxation and development) and, finally, establishing the EU as a major player in tobacco control at a global level. The current Flash Eurobarometer on Tobacco requested by the Directorate General Health and Consumers, was conducted to evaluate the EU citizens? and Norwegians? attitudes towards tobacco. In detail, the survey examined the: smoking habits and consumption of non-combustible tobacco products, exposure to tobacco smoke at home and at the workplace, status of workplace smoking restrictions, attitudes towards smoking restrictions in public places, perceived effectiveness of health warnings on tobacco packs, extent of tobacco products being bought online, purchasing of lower-priced cigarettes in other EU countries, amount of contact with potentially smuggled tobacco products. Other surveys on this topic were conducted in 2002, 2005 and 2006. Although the current survey builds on these earlier ones, it is different in several ways: Flash Eurobarometer 253 has covered different countries than the previous ones, the questionnaire has been re-designed and telephone interviews have replaced face-to-face discussions. |
