    US City Mandates Gas Pumps Must Carry Cigarette-Style Health Warning About Climate Ch

    You’re a smoker. You know smoking kills. You see the graphic warning labels every time you buy a pack of Marlboros. One day, you decide that enough is enough. You walk away from the convenience store counter and either buy some nicotine gum or go cold turkey.

    You may be beginning to see the problem here.


    Well, however well warning labels work — or even if they do — the city of Cambridge, Massachusetts, is about to see if it works for gas in the way I described it.
