Is snus "Green" compared to cigs?

[sgreger1]

ROFL, please enlighten me as to what constitutes "3rd hand smoke", because I am dying to know.

Its basically the "nicotine" residue left behind on your clothes or in your house after smoking cigarettes. It just gets more ridiculous everyday!

I also say loose snus is more "green" than cigs.

Nose around on http://tobaccodocuments.org/ or just Google for the hundreds of additives added to cigarettes, both the tobacco and the papers. Compare that to the few food-grade ingredients in Svensk snus.

Now think about the environmental impact of those ingredients themselves, their disposal, their manufacture, and their transportation. Also consider the health effects of ingesting those materials, working with them, and manufacturing & transporting them.

And on and on. Snus is more green by a landslide, as far as I can see.

I cannot believe that somewhere someone is collecting a check for sitting around all day thinking up bogus nonesense like this each day.

Lol I am in the process peppering all of northern california with spent snus portions as well. I need a formal snus ashtray, maybe I should start carrying an empty can to put my used portions in.




I was just curious if it could be spun that snusing is the "greener" alternative to smoking, since that seems to be all the craze nowadays.
Not even so much because of the trash, but because of the manufacturing techniques or perhaps a lack of chemical additives. The fact there is no combusted carbon smoke coming out of a portion would automatically make it greener I would imagine.

norcal starts at redding!!
