We all know that banning something like drugs or booze just leads to criminal activity. The best way is to spend excise duty or other taxes on education from an early age about nutrition and health and the effects of abuse of certain foods and drugs and alcohol and baccy.
Ditto growing one's own food in a healthy manner - good for soul, body, environment. The RHS sponsors and advises growing in schools in a manner that includes the wider school curriculum - maths, science etc - so it's easy enough to get kids started. Just need to get the teachers motivated and make sure each school has a space for gardening. easier said than done in towns and cities.
