[Prevention of air pollution by indoor tobacco smoke in France].
Revue medicale suisse, 2006A majority of smokers and non-smokers mind tobacco smoke. Passive smoking causes death by sudden infant death, lung cancer and coronary heart disease. 3000 to 6000 persons are killed every year in France.

Efficient Purification of Multiple Pollutants of Tobacco Smoke via Photocatalytic Oxidation Purifier
Environmental Science & TechnologyTobacco smoke, a complex mixture of particulate matter (PM) and gaseous pollutants, poses serious health risks and remains a significant challenge for indoor air purification. Photocatalytic oxidation (PCO) technology has emerged as an effective strategy for pollutant removal, but its application in real tobacco smoke purification and associated health

Indoor and outdoor air pollution: Tobacco smoke, moulds and diseases in infants and children
International Journal of Hygiene and Environmental Health, 2007Although outdoor air pollution first brought the issue of air pollution health effects to public attention, it is now indoor air pollution that likely has the greatest impact on children's health. The World Health Organization estimates that the global burden of disease from indoor air pollution is far greater than the burden from outdoor air pollution.

Folia medica Cracoviensia, 1994
Tobacco smoking is an important pathogenetic factor for man, but it is underestimated in our country. The great spread of this factor justifies the term "tobacco epidemic". Three epidemiological surveys made in Cracow and in the country near Lańcut indicated that 37% of the people smoked tobacco: 42% in the city of Cracow and 29% in the country. In 9.7%

In Hong Kong, environmental tobacco smoke at home is an important source of air pollution because of the crowded conditions in which most families live. Its effects on the respiratory health of children were shown in a four-year study in 1989–92 (Ong et al., 1991; Peters et al., 1996).
