Legislation banning smoking in public places goes in effect today. Health officials hope to raise awareness of the dangers of smoking, as China's smoking population makes up 1/3 of the worlds smokers. Officials also cite smoking as contributing to 4 of the top 5 causes of death in China. Despite the extensiveness of the ban, some are saying it doesn't go far enough, as it does not ban smoking in offices, where it is up to managers to warn their employees of the dangers, but cannot stop them from smoking.
