Tobacco farming is extremely labour intensive. This has a major impact on farming families who must provide much of the unpaid labour. The use of child labour in tobacco growing is widespread, with children often being pulled out of school at key harvesting times. Women are negatively affected as well, as is food production for the family as a result. As the international tobacco industry becomes ever more powerful and consolidated, the cheap (and often unpaid) labour of women is a key factor that ensures the large profit margins of tobacco multinationals.

But Sir Walter was an avid smoker and a popular public figure, so he certainly made smoking widely known and fashionable in England.
