CHS Student Presses For Smoke-Free City

by The Editors on May 3, 2008

Carlsbad HIgh School sophomore Michael Caraglio has written an opinion piece for the North County Times on the need for the City of Carlsbad to go smoke-free.

This is to all the citizens of Carlsbad who are wondering why Carlsbad has not passed a smoke-free ordinance like many other cities in San Diego County. I am really wondering, too. . . .My sister and I have been working on encouraging the city to pass such an ordinance for almost three years. . . .I am tired of hearing that there are more important items on the city council agenda. What could be more important than protecting its citizens from secondhand smoke and litter?

Michael, we agree completely. Wonder if it has anything to do with our “pro-smoking” Mayor and council members?
