Norman’s Nutty Adventures

Why support a ban on smoking in parks and playgrounds?

• There is no safe level of second-hand smoke, not even outdoors
• Reducing children and youth’s exposure to smoking decreases the likelihood of them starting to smoke
• Cigarette butts contain toxic chemicals and can be dangerous if ingested by children or animals
• Smoke-free spaces help people who smoke to quit
• Protecting the environment – cigarette filters can take up to 15 years to break-down

What You Can Do

• Sign the petition to show your support for smoke-free parks, playgrounds and playing fields in Norfolk County.
