New Zealand lawmakers want to phase out cigarettes by 2025

New Zealand doesn’t want the next generation to start life under a cloud.

The nation’s lawmakers have introduced a package of proposals that aim to eliminate cigarette use by 2025, first, by targeting those born after 2004. If passed, residents currently aged 24 years or younger would become New Zealand’s first entirely smoke-free generation, the Guardian reports, clearing the way to snuffing out cigarettes for good. The amount of addictive nicotine in tobacco products, including vape cartridges, would be severely mitigated under the new plan. Filters would also be prohibited, a move which might, ostensibly, make cigarettes more unpleasant to smoke. The law would also set mandatory minimums on the price of all tobacco products.
