A new report paints a damning picture of the environmental impacts of tobacco farming. In a single year, the industry is responsible for the deforestation of over 600 million trees, the use of 22 billion tons of water and the emission of a whopping 84 million tons of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. It is the time the heaviest hitters in this industry -- who have spent decades ravishing the health of the planet and people's bodies -- take responsibility for the devastation they've produced. Sign now to demand Big Tobacco companies pledge to cover the costs of pollution and invest in methods to offset emissions!   Ironically, the tactics of climate denialism have come directly from Big Tobacco's playbook. For decades, tobacco corporations lied to governments and misled the public about the potentially fatal impacts of smoking. Energy companies then used the exact same strategies to muddy the science on global warming, even though climatologists have been certain that the planet is heating up and humanity has played a role in this heat by emitting greenhouse gasses for nearly half a century. Now, this climate denialism is working to the advantage of Big Tobacco, who is partially responsible for climate chaos. We must put pressure on the industry to make up for the devastation they've caused!
