A
vast archive of tobacco-industry documents shows that, as early as the 1940s,
the tobacco industry had evidence suggesting that smoking causes cancer. In
1953, however, a meeting of the chief executives of major American tobacco
companies took a joint decision to deny that cigarettes are harmful. Moreover,
once the scientific evidence that smoking causes cancer became public, the industry
tried to create the impression that the science was inconclusive, in much the
same way that those who deny that human activities are causing climate change
deliberately distort the science today.
