BESIDE a serene lake in Switzerland sits a modern glass building called the Cube. Wide-leafed tobacco plants grow in the lobby. In one room machines that can “smoke” more than a dozen cigarettes at a time dutifully puff away, measuring the chemicals that consumers would inhale. The research centre is run by Philip Morris International (PMI), which sells Marlboro and other brands around the world.

BING NEWS:
  • Nearly a half million die each year from tobacco use. Some groups face higher risk.
    Surgeon General Vivek Murthy released a report on disparities in cigarette smoking rates. He wants a federal menthol ban and nicotine limits.
