Good but best of luck to the authorities and young adults/teenagers alike.

This is the best summary I could come up with:

A 2019 study estimated that 40% of young Danes aged 15-16 had been drunk in the previous 30 days, the highest proportion in Europe, where the average is 13%.

Denmark is to restrict the sale of alcohol to under-18s and increase the price of suckable nicotine sachets, as their growing popularity is worrying health authorities, the Ministry of Health announced on Tuesday.

She also deplored the fact that young people were consuming more and more snus, a tobacco product which comes in the form of nicotine sachets that can be sucked.

It will also be forbidden to offer “seductive” aromas and flavours in tobacco replacement products", the ministry said.

According to the National Health Authority, 22% of 15-year-old girls and 27% of 15-year-old boys drink on a weekly basis.

In 2019, a study by ESPAD (European School Survey Project on Alcohol and Other Drugs) estimated that 40% of young Danes aged 15-16 had been drunk in the previous 30 days, the highest proportion in Europe, where the average is 13%.

The original article contains 269 words, the summary contains 170 words. Saved 37%. I’m a bot and I’m open source!

It’s the constant attempt of our government to appease the various health organizations (and other complainy-pants) by taking the least effective route towards nothing, that might make them “look good”.

At the end of the day, a ton of the tax money they get to play around with comes directly from alcohol and tobacco. So our politicians have no interest in actually doing anything serious about it.

But if jacking up the prices a bit again and again and changing official age restrictions gets them a pat on the head from ‘Kraftens Bekæmpelse’ (The Cancer Society), they’ll keep doing just that and nothing else.
