  • The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) estimates that smoking (including exposure to secondhand smoke) is linked to around 480,000 deaths per year in the United States.

    According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), roughly 40,000 people die in motor‐vehicle crashes in the US each year.

    There’s a couple of problems though. Board members have a fiduciary responsibility to the company to act in its best interests. Even if you get someone who is left leaning, they may not vote or conduct themselves in a way you’d prefer because of this.
