Why sponsor a site such as SmokingBugsMe?

Tobacco use still remains one the single most preventable causes of illness and death in the United States. With the growing amount of evidence that secondhand smoke claims thousands of lives each year, coupled with the recent passing of both the Georgia Smoke-Free Air Act and the Athens-Clarke County Clean Air Ordinance, we wanted to offer a place to learn about the ordinances, as well as the dangers of secondhand smoke.
