INTRODUCTION
 As smokers, we learn early on

to put up a mental wall
of denial between our smoking
habit and the harsh reality
of the damage we're inflicting
on ourselves with every
cigarette smoked.
INTRODUCTION
 We tell ourselves lies that allow us smoke with some level of

comfort. We say we have time to quit, that cancer doesn't ru
in our family...that we can quit any time we want to, that the
bad things happen to other people. And because smoking is
typically a slow killer, those lies support the framework of our
wall of denial for years and years.
HISTORY
 The history of smoking dates back to as early as 5000 BC in
shamanistic rituals. Many ancient
civilizations, such as the
Babylonians, Indians and
Chinese, burnt incense as a
part of religious rituals, as did
the later Catholic and Orthodox
Christian churches.
HISTORY
 The smoking of tobacco, as well as various hallucinogenic drugs was

used to achieve trances and to come into contact with the spirit world.
 Cannabis smoking was common in Sub-Saharan Africa through Ethiopia

and the east African coast in the Middle East before the arrival of
tobacco, and was early on a common social activity that centered aroun
d
the type of water pipe called a hookah.
FACTS
 The tobacco industry is one of the biggest in the world mark
It is worth more than $400 billion annually. Up to 1 trillion
cigarettes are sold all over the world every year.
 Most countries now have a minimum age for buying tobacco

of 18 years, except Japan whose minimum age is 20.
 Smoking has been identified as being responsible for a lot of

preventable illnesses and deaths all over the world.

SMOKING IN MOROCCO
 Morocco is considered one of the largest consumers of
tobacco in the Mediterranean with more than 15 billion
cigarettes per year.
Every day, at least 14 cigarettes are smoked by men and 12 for
women.
 A national survey on the habits and behavior of

smokers published in 2008, the smoker spends an average
of 22 DH per day for the purchase of tobacco.
SMOKING IN MOROCCO
 Since 1996, we have an anti-smoking law (No. 15-91), which

prohibits smoking in certain public places, propaganda,
advertising in favor of tobacco.
But if this low has continued to envolve and strengthen over
time
in Morocco, there is still
a very strong distortion
between the text
and its application.
SMOKING IN MOROCCO
 Criminal penalties and fines,

however, are provided up
to 500 DH for smoking
in an enclosed public place,
and up to 5,000 DH

But in fact, no one verbalized.
