www.linkedin.comHow Iceland Got Teenagers to Stop Drinking and Smoking 🍷🚭 | Gilles ToussaintHow Iceland Got Teenagers to Stop Drinking and Smoking 🍷🚭 In the 90s, Icelandic teens were among Europe's heaviest drinkers. Today? They lead the continent in healthy living. What changed? 📚 Scientists identified that addiction is not just moral failure—it’s biochemistry 🇮🇸 The government listened. And acted. They banned ads for alcohol and cigarettes. They gave every teen free access to sports, music, art, and dance. They funded programs 3x/week, for months. And teens kept going for years. The result? ❌ Alcohol use: 48% → 5% ❌ Smoking: 23% → 3% 💡 Proof that big problems can be solved. But IMO: ➡️ This only worked because a government stepped up. ➡️ These results are nearly impossible in a system where profit > people. Now imagine this same logic applied to nature: 🌍 What if we tackled climate breakdown with the same commitment? 🌱 Funded access to nature, restoration, and repair, not just for teens, but for all. 🛑 Banned ads and practices that destroy the Earth. We know what works. We’ve just got to want it badly enough. Government action changed everything for a generation. Now we need the same courage for our forests, oceans, and future. Do you think we can solve climate breakdown without government action? | 411 comments on LinkedIn
