Australia’s legal victory over the tobacco industry on plain packaging will save many lives, especially by helping young people who are susceptible to advertising avoid picking up smoking in the first place – and it’s further evidence that countries can stand up to the tobacco industry and win.

Bloomberg Philanthropies is committed to helping more of those countries fight back through the litigation fund we launched with the Gates Foundation and the Campaign for Tobacco-Free Kids. This is a fight for people’s lives, and as today’s decision shows, the momentum is on our side.

We’ve adorned ourselves with it for thousands of years and its very existence made pirates dizzy with greed. Its applications range from micro-circuitry and medical products to the coating of astronauts’ helmets. A traditional storehouse of value throughout the centuries, gold has always been in high demand and today it’s no different. What’s changing though is the way it is mined and how that mining is managed.

These countries, in turn, are expected to place additional requirements on companies to reduce their overall carbon footprint.
