Almost all NL residents support smoke-free playgrounds: Study

More and more Netherlands residents believe that smoking should be banned in the locations where children play, according to a study of 1,358 adults by the Health Funds for Smoke Free, a collaboration between the Heart Foundation, The Dutch Cancer Society, and the Lung Fund. Almost all respondents said that playgrounds should be smoke free, NOS reports. Smoking has been banned on all school grounds since August 1. But people are still allowed to smoke in many playgrounds and sports areas. That has to change, according to a growing group of Netherlands residents.Submitted by Janene Pieters on Tuesday, 18 August 2020 - 09:49 https://nltimes.nl/2020/08/18/almost-nl-residents-support-smoke-free-playgrounds-study
