Will the EU Ban Smoking?

Home and Planning for the Road and Travel

According to the International News Tribune, the health chief of the EU recommends a smoking ban for the European Union countries.

The European Union's health chief urged all countries in the bloc Tuesday to prohibit smoking in public places, following bans in Ireland, Italy and Sweden.

Banning smoking in places like bars, restaurants and the workplace is the preferred option of the EU health commissioner, Markos Kyprianou, according to a discussion paper on smoke-free environments.

Such a ban would be a dream come true for us travelers who suffer from cigarette allergies. A smoke-free Europe. Wow! Makes me want to visit, don't you?
