關(guān)于世界無煙日英語作文
World No Tobacco Day
This year’s observance of World No Tobacco Day focuses on “Gender and tobacco, with an emphasis on marketing to women”.
Although fewer than 1 out of 10 women are smokers, that still adds up to an estimated 200 million women around the world. Moreover, that number could grow, since the tobacco industry is spending heavily on advertisements that target women and associate tobacco use with beauty and liberation.
According to a recent study by the World Health Organization (WHO), the number of girls and boys who smoked was about equal in half the 151 countries surveyed. This finding is even more worrisome since young people who smoke are likely to continue in adulthood.
Evidence indicates that the prevalence rate of tobacco use among women is on the rise in some countries. Governments everywhere must take action to protect women from tobacco advertising, promotion and sponsorship, as stipulated in the WHO Framework Convention on Tobacco Control.
The Convention also calls on Governments to protect women from second-hand tobacco smoke — especially in countries where women feel powerless to protect themselves and their children. As WHO data show, of the 430,000 adults who die each year from second-hand smoke, nearly two thirds are women.
Around the world, more than 1.5 million women die each year from tobacco use. Most of these deaths occur in low- and middle-income countries. Without concerted action, that number could rise to 2.5 million women by the year 2030.
We must turn back the global tobacco epidemic. On World No Tobacco Day, I urge all Governments to address this public health threat. Tobacco use is not stylish or empowering. It is ugly and deadly.
今年的世界無煙日,關(guān)注“性別與煙草,強(qiáng)調(diào)對(duì)女性的營(yíng)銷”。
雖然不到10名女性中有1名女性吸煙者,但仍有200000000名婦女在全世界估計(jì)有名婦女被吸煙。而且,這個(gè)數(shù)字可能會(huì)增長(zhǎng),因?yàn)闊煵輼I(yè)在廣告上投入巨資,針對(duì)婦女和聯(lián)想煙草使用的廣告與美和解放。
據(jù)世界衛(wèi)生組織最近的一項(xiàng)調(diào)查顯示,有一半的女孩和男孩在調(diào)查的151個(gè)國(guó)家中大約有一半是平等的。這一發(fā)現(xiàn)更令人擔(dān)憂,因?yàn)槲鼰煹哪贻p人很可能在成年后繼續(xù)繼續(xù)下去。
有證據(jù)表明,在一些國(guó)家,婦女使用煙草的患病率在上升。各國(guó)政府都必須采取行動(dòng),保護(hù)婦女不受煙草控制的“世界衛(wèi)組織公約”規(guī)定的煙草廣告、促銷和贊助。
該公約還呼吁各國(guó)政府保護(hù)婦女免受二手煙草煙霧的保護(hù),特別是在婦女感到無力保護(hù)自己和子女的國(guó)家。正如世衛(wèi)組織數(shù)據(jù)顯示,每年死于二手煙的430000名成年人中,有近三分之二名是女性。
在世界各地,每年有超過1500000名婦女死于煙草使用。大多數(shù)這些死亡發(fā)生在低收入和中等收入國(guó)家。如果沒有協(xié)調(diào)一致的行動(dòng),這一數(shù)字可能會(huì)上升到2500000,2030歲的女性。
我們必須把全球煙草流行化。在世界無煙日,我呼吁各國(guó)政府應(yīng)對(duì)這一公共衛(wèi)生威脅。煙草使用是不時(shí)尚的或授權(quán)的。它是丑陋和致命的。
