Children Against Cigarettes
Maine has more young smokers than anywhere else in the United States, but help is at hand
Maine is the youth-smoking centre of the United States. Statistics show that more 18 to 25-year-olds are hooked on cigarettes in this state than anywhere else in the country. We visit a group of children and teenagers in Maine who have set up their own anti-tobacco campaign, and ask them: why do young people continue to smoke and what can be done to help them quit or to never start?
Also on the show, tackling bullying and why the perpertrators need help too; and a report from a black hole.
