TIJUANA BC (El Sol de Tijuana, Sonia García, 5/30/11) – The consumption of tobacco causes more deaths than AIDS and in 2030, 8 million people will die a year.

At that point, Boulevard Díaz Ordaz ends at Delegación La Mesa. Along the march, cigarette butts will be collected near the campus, homes of pupils and a schedule of conferences on the subject the same day. Martín Llamas Haro, of the Conalep State Office said, it is an event to keep students from developing the habit of tobacco-use. It is forbidden to smoke inside facilities. In addition, continual and random anti-doping tests have been conducted in the State’s six wards as a way of preventing young people from engaging in drug use. "We know that the cigarette is the drug of the home. After that, they will continue onto using stronger chemicals, hence its importance," he stressed. Raúl Rafael Palacios Lazos, Director of the Center for Youth Integration in Tijuana, will participate in the March. He said it is important for young people to be aware, because they belong to social groups, and they tend to take-up harmful habits such as smoking. The preventive actions of Conalep are related to the World Health Organization, which has taken actions against smoking since 1987 and this year launched the campaign "Three ways to save lives", said the steering director.
