Don't Pass Gas - Grandpa
Dont Pass Gas, a public service health campaign from Legacy and the Ad Council, is designed to educate Americans -- especially parents -- about the dangers of secondhand smoke and to motivate them to create smoke-free environments for their families. Research indicates that one in five children with a smoking parent is exposed to secondhand smoke at home, and these children are at increased risk of Sudden Infant Death Syndrome, lung infections, ear infections and severe asthma. The report points to the need to continue to educate Americans about the serious health risks posed by secondhand smoke. The Dont Pass Gas campaign also includes radio and Internet advertising. The public can visit http://www.dontpassgas.org/ for information on the dangers of secondhand smoke and to find resources for families.
