France will ban smoking in all outdoor places that can be accessed by children, including beaches, parks and bus stops, the health and family minister has announced, ahead of World No Tobacco Day on…
I live in a country with a strict outdoor smoking ban and I love it.
There are dedicated smoking areas for people to smoke outdoors, but they are really small and cramped with smokers.
It’s actually really nice, you never see or smell people smoking unless you wonder too close to the designated smoking areas which are often really out of the way.
The streets are not really clean here, but at least it’s not cigarette butts. Even things like vapes need to be smoked in a designated area, but sometimes people do it on the street anyway.
Nice. I think our only real outdoor restriction is “within 20’ of an entrance”. But it’s not enough.
That reminds me I need to complain to one of my favorite restaurants. They have an ash tray outside so people are less likely to litter and it is more than 20’ from the entrance. However it’s too close. When the patio is open, the smokers are just across the sidewalk and it ruins the meal
