Every year, 700,000 lives are needlessly lost in the EU due to smoking-related diseases. As the EU reviews the Tobacco Products Directive, there’s a concerning push to restrict safer nicotine alternatives, further endangering lives.
This isn’t just a petition; it’s a demand for the protection of harm-reduction products, which are vital for public health. Your support is more than valuable—it’s crucial for advocating sensible, life-saving policies.
At the end of this year we will submit the petition to the EU Parliament’s PETI committee.

Every Life Counts
Combat Smoking Deaths with Proven Harm Reduction Strategies.
We’re clear in our demands and unwavering in our commitment.
We’re calling for:
Preservation of Flavours: Rejecting Bans on Vaping Flavours
A Firm Commitment to Harm Reduction: Embracing Effective Strategies
Ensuring Affordability and Variety: Supporting Access to Safer Nicotine Alternatives for Adults
Risk-Based Regulation: Differentiate and Govern Nicotine Products by Their Harm
The time to act is NOW. With consumer-friendly nicotine regulations, millions of lives can be saved in Europe. We refuse to give up on them. Everyone deserves the right to choose a healthier life, and that’s what we’re fighting for. But we can’t do it alone.
We need to act NOW.
