Teenage smoking in China as well as America has been a rising problem. With the evolution of e- cigarettes, smoking has become easier than ever before. Interestingly enough, the rise of tobacco through e-cigarettes has been spread and is used by many celebrities and influencers. In China, cigarettes are easily accessible to underage children and are primarily used by citizens in professional fields. In my project, I explore the smoking epidemic in China and interview three international students in order to shed light on the issue. Being a person who was previously addicted to nicotine products, I compare my experience to theirs and made connections and comparisons with the international students.
