Smoking Exposed

Despite all the attempts to educate young people about the dangers of smoking, millions of teens and preteens take up the habit every year. This program presents straightforward facts about virtually every harmful effect that smoking can cause in an effort to get teens to stop smoking before they start. Through hard-hitting interviews and information packed narration, students get an unblinking look at how smoking causes heart disease and cancers of the lungs, throat and mouth. They’ll see that smoking can lead to serious physical debilitation, damage to one’s appearance and ability to perform tasks as well as result in an addiction that is extremely difficult to break. Teens will also understand that billions of dollars are spent on advertising cigarettes and that teens are targeted in insidious and subtle ways.
