JAMA -- Removing Barriers to Local Tobacco Regulation, December 5, 2001, Fox 286 (21): 2735 (#)
„This will require scientists to conduct targeted studies to demonstrate the need for such laws, and public health practitioners to educate decision-makers on the science and strategies for tobacco control. Equally important, however, public health professionals and policy makers should work collaboratively with experts who can provide technical legal assistance. These experts can help navigate the roadmaps set up by the Supreme Court, avoid potential pitfalls in regulation, and provide protection from those who would use common misperceptions or inflammatory arguments to challenge the regulations. In particular, the public health community and states should promote the development of tobacco control centers to provide legal assistance and ensure that the centers are supported by the best available science.“

„A two-year slump in prices – from $1.45 in December 1999 to 45 cents today – has created an ongoing economic disaster in dozens of developing countries. While the US coffee industry saved an estimated two billion dollars in 2001 alone due to lower green bean costs, the economies of many already poor, rural areas have collapsed. Tens of thousands of farmers from Mexico to Tanzania have abandoned their farms. Farmers do not have money for basic necessities such as food and medical care, and malnutrition has skyrocketed in many regions.“
