衛生福利部【2022世界無菸日】宣導

 

世界衛生組織(World Health Organization,WHO)宣佈2022 年世界無菸日全球運動為「菸草:對我們環境的威脅(Tobacco: Threat to our environment)」。該活動旨在提高公眾對菸草影響環境影響的意識(從種植,生產,供應、使用到廢棄)。而這將給菸草消費者一個額外的戒菸理由。

以下依照不同的對象進行行動呼籲。(Calls to Action)

 一般大眾(General public)

(Give tobacco users an extra reason to quit. Quitting tobacco benefits your health and the
environment.)
2. 支持禁止一次性塑料製品(用於紙菸濾嘴、無煙菸草袋和電子廢棄物)的政策行動。
(Support policy action around ban on single use plastics which include cigarette butts,
smokeless tobacco pouches and electronic waste.)
3. 提高對菸商「漂綠(greenwashing)」策略之意識。
(Raise awareness of the tobacco industry’s greenwashing tactics.)
4. 支持政府對菸商徵收附加稅以保護環境。

識與敏感度。
Start or join a movement to protect the environment. Raise awareness about the

generation for the ill effects of environmental tobacco waste.
4. 減少菸草零售商數量。
Reduce the number of tobacco retail stores.

 行政官員及政策制定者(Ministries and policymakers)
1. 對菸商實施「生產者責任延伸(Extended Producer Responsibility, EPR)」政策措施,要
求他們對清理菸草產品廢棄物(Tobacco Product Waste, TPW)的成本負責。
Impose the EPR policy principle on the tobacco industry to hold them accountable for the
cost of cleaning up TPW.
2. 針對菸商製造商、供應商以及消費者加以徵收環境稅,因應整個供應鏈產生的碳排放
量、空氣污染以及其他環境之成本。
Impose an environmental tax levy on the tobacco manufacturers, distributors and the
consumer, across the supply chain for carbon emissions, air pollution and other
environmental costs.
3. 實施菸草控制策略 (MPOWER)以減少菸草對環境之影響。
Implement tobacco control (MPOWER measures) to minimize the environmental impact of
tobacco.
4. 支持菸農轉向替代性、可持續的生計方案,以符合「世界衛生組織菸草控制框架公
約」第17 條及第18 條。

November 2022 to collaborate and advance the tobacco control agenda in line with World
No Tobacco Day.

 非政府組織(NGO)及公民社會(NGOs and civil Society)
1. 提升公民社會與非政府組織對於菸草整個生命週期(從種植、生產、供應、使用到廢
棄)對環境影響之意識。
Raise awareness of the environmental impact of tobacco across the life cycle from
cultivation, production, distribution, use and waste.
2. 在公共場所與社區展示菸草廢棄物問題。

學成分對土壤、飲用水、人類和動物健康造成之環境危害的資料。
Collect data on water use, deforestation, and the lethal and environmentally degrading
chemicals in tobacco products and the environmental harm of these components on soil,
drinking water, human and animal health.
2. 評估菸品與菸草產品廢棄物對環境的整體影響。
Estimate the total impact of tobacco product waste as well as the total environmental impact
of one tobacco product.
3. 提高對種植菸草國家相關菸害防制或轉型之方案/計畫的意識,例如:肯亞數百名農
民成功轉換種植其他農作物、東非的森林砍伐和氣候變遷方案等。
Raise awareness of projects in tobacco growing countries, for example in Kenya where
hundreds of farmers successfully switched to alternative crops, as well as deforestation and
