UC San Diego researchers found that anti-vaping advertising and news coverage of the 2019 EVALI lung injury outbreak were the turning point in reversing teen vaping in the US. Among California adolescents, quit attempts nearly doubled between 2017–18 and 2019–20. Nationally, youth vaping fell from a peak of 20% in 2019 to 5.9% by 2024 — proof that public health messaging works.

Des chercheurs de l’UC San Diego ont établi que les campagnes anti-vapotage et la couverture médiatique de l’épidémie pulmonaire EVALI en 2019 ont constitué le tournant qui a inversé la tendance chez les adolescents américains. En Californie, les tentatives d’arrêt ont presque doublé entre 2017–18 et 2019–20. À l’échelle nationale, le vapotage chez les jeunes est passé de 20 % en 2019 à 5,9 % en 2024.

Ghana has created its first marine protected area, covering 703 square kilometers around Cape Three Points on the country’s southern coast. The reserve protects a vital spawning and nursery ground where fish can recover. A no-fishing core zone will safeguard the most sensitive habitat, while surrounding waters stay open to regulated use.

McGill University researchers found that treating peanuts with cold plasma — an ionized gas that alters protein structure — for just 25 minutes reduces allergic immune response by nearly 70%. The method preserves taste and nutrition and could be extended to eggs, hazelnuts, and other common allergens, opening the door to a wider range of safer foods.
