The environmental and health impacts of tobacco agriculture, cigarette manufacture and consumption.

Abstract:

:The health consequences of tobacco use are well known, but less recognized are the significant environmental impacts of tobacco production and use. The environmental impacts of tobacco include tobacco growing and curing; product manufacturing and distribution; product consumption; and post-consumption waste. The World Health Organization's Framework Convention on Tobacco Control addresses environmental concerns in Articles 17 and 18, which primarily apply to tobacco agriculture. Article 5.3 calls for protection from policy interference by the tobacco industry regarding the environmental harms of tobacco production and use. We detail the environmental impacts of the tobacco life-cycle and suggest policy responses. :Les conséquences du tabagisme sur la santé sont notoires. En revanche, les impacts environnementaux considérables de la production et de la consommation de tabac sont moins connus. Ces impacts environnementaux sont liés à la culture et au séchage du tabac, à la fabrication des produits du tabac et à leur distribution, au tabagisme et aux déchets générés après consommation. La Convention-cadre de l’OMS pour la lutte antitabac évoque ces problèmes environnementaux dans ses Articles 17 et 18, qui s'appliquent avant tout à la culture du tabac. L'Article 5.3 préconise de ne pas laisser l'industrie du tabac influencer les mesures politiques en ce qui concerne les effets négatifs de la production et de la consommation du tabac sur l'environnement. Nous détaillons dans ce dossier les impacts environnementaux sur tout le cycle de vie du tabac et formulons plusieurs suggestions en termes de réponse politique. :Las consecuencias sanitarias del consumo de tabaco son bien conocidas, pero no tanto los significativos efectos que el cultivo y consumo de tabaco tienen en el medio ambiente. Los efectos medioambientales del tabaco incluyen el crecimiento y la cura del tabaco, la producción y distribución del producto, el consumo del producto y los residuos resultantes de su consumo. El Convenio Marco de la OMS para el Control del Tabaco aborda las preocupaciones medioambientales en los Artículos 17 y 18, los cuales se aplican principalmente en el cultivo del tabaco. El Artículo 5.3 exige medidas cautelares respecto a las políticas de interferencia de la industria del tabaco en lo que se refiere a los daños medioambientales del cultivo y el consumo de tabaco. Se enumeran los efectos medioambientales del ciclo de vida del tabaco y se sugieren respuestas políticas. :إن الآثار الصحية لاستخدام التبغ معروفة جيدًا، ولكن المعرفة بالتأثيرات البيئية الكبرى لإنتاج التبغ واستخدامه ليست بذات القدر من الانتشار. وتشتمل الآثار البيئية للتبغ على زراعة التبغ ومعالجته؛ وصناعة المنتجات وتوزيعها واستهلاكها؛ والنفايات الناتجة بعد الاستهلاك. وتتناول الاتفاقية الإطارية لمنظمة الصحة العالمية المعنية بمكافحة التبغ المخاوف البيئية في المادتين 17 و18، واللتين تنطبقان بشكل أساسي على زراعة التبغ. وتدعو المادة 5-3 للحماية من التدخل في السياسات من جانب قطاع صناعة التبغ فيما يتعلق بالأضرار البيئية لإنتاج التبغ واستخدامه. ونحن نتناول بالتفصيل التأثيرات البيئية لدورة حياة التبغ كما نقترح الاستجابات السياسية. :使用烟草对健康造成的后果已经众所周知,但是生产和使用烟草对环境产生的重大影响却鲜为人知。烟草对环境的影响包括:烟草种植和烘焙、产品制造和分销、产品消费和消费后产生的垃圾。世界卫生组织发布的《烟草控制框架公约》第 17 条和第 18 条中强调的环境问题主要适用于烟草农业。关于烟草生产和使用对环境造成的伤害,第 5.3 款中呼吁烟草行业采取政策干预来保护环境。我们将会详细探讨烟草在其生命周期内对环境造成的影响,同时建议政策应对。. :Влияние табака на здоровье изучено хорошо, но куда менее известно значительное воздействие производства и потребления табака на окружающую среду. Воздействие табака на окружающую среду происходит во время выращивания и сушки табака, изготовления, распределения и потребления табачных изделий; также влияние на окружающую среду оказывают отходы потребления. В Рамочной конвенции Всемирной организации здравоохранения по борьбе против табака проблемам окружающей среды посвящены статьи 17 и 18, в которых внимание уделяется в основном сельскохозяйственному производству табака. В статье 5.3 отмечается необходимость защиты от вмешательства табачной промышленности в политику здравоохранения в плане причинения вреда окружающей среде в результате производства и потребления табачных изделий. Далее подробно описывается влияние жизненного цикла табачных изделий на окружающую среду и предлагаются ответные меры в области политики.
