Charles M. Harper, CEO RJR Nabisco 1301 Avenue of the Americas New York, NY 10019 USA
Dear Mr. Harper,
Tobacco use kills about three million people worldwide each year -- most of them hooked by the tobacco industry in their childhood and youth. 60% of smokers begin before they're even 14 years old.
I am joining INFACT and thousands of other consumers worldwide calling on you to:
We ask that you start by discontinuing the use of cartoons to promote your tobacco products, specifically the "Joe Camel" character.
I am now boycotting Nabisco products, including Oreo cookies, Fig Newtons, Ritz crackers, and Planters peanuts. When will RJR Nabisco stop these abusive and deadly practices? I await your prompt reply.
Sincerely,
