Orozco, Norma <br />From: Nathaniel Greensides <mynci90@gmail.com> <br />Sent: Tuesday, December 21, 2021 4:29 PM <br />To:eComment; Hernandez, Johnathan <br />Subject: City Council Meeting Agenda Item 39 <br />I would like to voice my support of this item. Flavored tobacco products not only are detrimental to the health <br />of everyone - especially any young people in our community - but also, these flavored tobacco products are <br />worse for the environment than traditional "analog" tobacco and nicotine products with the plastic and metals <br />required in the manufacturing process of the devices themselves as well as the chemicals involved in the <br />creation of the liquid and pods (not to mention that the pods wind up in landfills never to break down <br />completely if at all). <br />Separately, I believe that there also is a need to ensure that smoking cessation products are made available to <br />those who have developed the habit to ensure that any withdrawal effects are mitigated on top of educational <br />campaigns against flavored nicotine and tobacco products. <br />Sincerely, <br />Nathaniel Greensides <br />Ward 5 Resident <br />i
