"It gets easier, right?"

„Vremenom postaje lakše, zar ne?“

These are the words I often hear from young parents

Te reči često čujem od mladih roditelja

who are new to the game of worrying about their children.

koji su tek ušli u igru brige zbog svoje dece.

I tell them that it doesn't.

Govorim im da ne postaje lakše.

It gets different,

Postaje drugačije,

but there's always something to worry about as parents.

ali uvek se nađe nešto zbog čega ćete brinuti kao roditelji.

I remember how I would lie half-awake at night

Sećam se kako sam noću ležala polubudna

listening to my son breathe

slušajući kako moj sin diše

when he was young and had asthma,

kada je bio mali i imao astmu,

and then, when he was a teen,

a potom, kada je bio tinejdžer,

until I heard the front door chime open,

sve dok ne čujem otvaranje ulaznih vrata

and I knew that he was home safe.

i uverim se da je bezbedno stigao kući.

Worrying about our kids comes with the territory.

Briga za decu nam je u opisu posla.

Now, many of these worries are about basic issues,

Mnoge od tih briga su vezane za osnovne stvari,

like what they eat, where they are, who they're with.

kao što je šta jedu, gde su, sa kim su.

But we also need to keep an eye on new behaviors and fads.

Ali, takođe moramo da pazimo na nove aktivnosti i trendove.

The latest craze is something that may not yet be on everyone's radar

Najnovija pomama je nešto što možda još ne privlači pažnju svakome

as a serious health concern,

kao ozbiljan zdravstveni problem,

and that is the newfound popularity of vaping,

a to je novootkrivena popularnost „vejpovanja“

or inhaling sweet aerosols

ili udisanja slatkih aerosoli

produced by vaporizing e-liquids in e-cigarettes.

koje proizvodi isparavanje tečnosti u elektronskim cigaretama.

E-cigarettes, or "vapes," as they are commonly called,

Elektronske cigarete ili „vejpovi“, kako se često nazivaju,

are flying off the shelves like candy.

prodaju se kao alva.

This year, the e-cigarette market is expected to drive

Očekuje se da će ove godine tržište elektronskih cigareta da obrne

26 billion dollars in sales worldwide.

26 milijardi dolara u prodaji širom sveta.

Over the next six years,

Tokom narednih šest godina,

that volume is expected to double.

očekuje se da će se taj broj udvostručiti.

We have a lot of serious concerns about the health impact of vaping,

Mnogo je ozbiljnih razloga za brigu vezanih za uticaj vejpa na zdravlje,

and unfortunately, not nearly enough answers.

a, nažalost, nema ni približno dovoljno odgovora.

This becomes even more concerning when you think of who uses e-cigarettes.

To još više počinje da zabrinjava

kada pomislite na to ko koristi elektronske cigarete.

E-cigarette use, at least in the US,

Upotreba elektronskih cigareta, barem u SAD-u,

has grown rapidly among youth and young adults --

naglo se povećala među omladinom i mlađim odraslim ljudima -

our kids,

našom decom,

our most vulnerable population.

našim najranjivijim stanovništvom.

There was a 900 percent growth in the use of e-cigarettes by youth

Došlo je do porasta od 900 procenata u upotrebi elektronskih cigareta

kod mladih između 2012. i 2015. godine.

between 2012 and 2015.

The most recent estimates suggest

Najnovije procene ukazuju

that approximately 3.6 million high school and middle school students

da je otprilike 3,6 miliona učenika u srednjoj školi i višim razredima osnovne

have used e-cigarettes in the US.

koristilo elektronske cigarete u SAD-u.

Now, e-cigarettes were originally created

Elektronske cigarete su prvobitno napravljene

to offer smokers a cleaner form of nicotine

da bi se pušačima ponudio čistiji oblik nikotina

to help with their cigarette addiction.

koji bi im pomogao sa zavisnošću od cigareta.

In the US, these devices come under the FDA's jurisdiction

U SAD-u ovi uređaji ulaze u nadležnost Uprave za hranu i lekove

as a tobacco product.

kao duvanski proizvodi.

But the science on these devices has not been able to keep up

Ali, nauka o ovim uređajima ne uspeva da održi korak

with the rapid market growth,

sa ubrzanim rastom tržišta,

so regulations on the components of these devices and e-liquids

pa zato zaostaju propisi o komponentama ovih uređaja i njihovim tečnostima.

are lagging.

Current regulations do restrict sales of these devices

Postojeći propisi ograničavaju prodaju ovih uređaja

to anyone under the age of 18,

za osobe ispod 18 godina,

but these do not seem to have had much of an impact

ali to izgleda da nema mnogo uticaja

on the explosion in the use of these devices by teens.

na naglo širenje upotrebe ovih naprava kod tinejdžera.

You know, the first time I heard of and saw an e-cigarette,

Znate, kada sam prvi put čula za elektronske cigarete i videla ih,

I knew right away that teens would love it.

odmah sam znala da će ih tinejdžeri obožavati.

These devices are technology on a stick,

Te naprave su tehnologija na štapiću,

a perfect fit for the smartphone generation --

savršeno odgovaraju generaciji pametnih telefona -

small, rechargeable, easy to use, easy to modify, nice smelling --

male su, pune se, lake su za upotrebu, lako se menjaju, lepo mirišu -

some even sync with your smartphone to let you know how much you have vaped.

neke se čak i sinhronizuju sa telefonom da biste videli koliko ste koristili vejp.

Even I was very drawn to these very clever devices.

Čak su i mene privukle ove pametne sprave.

And since I had spent a long time researching teen and adult addictions,

A pošto sam dosta vremena provela

istražujući zavisnosti tinejdžera i odraslih,

I immediately realized that these devices fit perfectly into the teen psyche.

odmah sam shvatila da se ti uređaji savršeno uklapaju u tinejdžersku psihu.

Teens are impulsive, and they love to try new things.

Tinejdžeri su impulsivni i vole da isprobavaju nove stvari.

They're also craving independence, and they love to make things their own.

Takođe žude za nezavisnošću i vole da stvari prilagode sebi.

E-cigarettes meet these needs perfectly

Elektronske cigarete savršeno zadovoljavaju te potrebe

by allowing them the chance to both innovate and personalize

tako što im pružaju priliku da istovremeno uvode novine i podešavaju

their vape experience.

svoje iskustvo sa vejpom.

They can choose from over 15,000 different e-liquid flavors

Mogu da biraju više od 15 000 različitih ukusa tečnosti

and multiple nicotine concentrations.

i više koncentracija nikotina.

They can even create their own nicotine flavor combination.

Čak mogu da naprave svoju nikotinsku kombinaciju ukusa.

They can change how much vapor is produced from these devices

Mogu da promene količinu pare koju ovi uređaji proizvode

by modifying the puff volume and the constituents

podešavajući zapreminu pri udisaju, sastojke,

and the power and temperature of the devices.

snagu i temperaturu naprave.

They can even use these devices for "cloud chasing."

Čak koriste ove uređaje za „jurenje oblaka“.

Cloud chasing, also called vape tricks

Jurenje oblaka, takođe poznato kao trikovi sa vejpom ili dimni trikovi,

or smoke tricks,

involves producing large vape clouds with quirky shapes and names,

podrazumeva pravljenje ogromnih oblaka od pare sa čudnim oblicima i imenima

like rings, dragons, ghosts ...

kao što su prstenovi, zmajevi, duhovi...

Cloud chasers can even participate in cloud competitions

Oni koji jure oblake mogu čak i da učestvuju na takmičenjima

and win prizes for creating the most innovative shaped clouds.

i da osvajaju nagrade za pravljenje najinovativnijih oblika dima.

Teens can also change the strength and throat hit from the vapor

Tinejdžeri takođe mogu da menjaju snagu i osećaj u grlu od pare

by either vaporizing the e-liquid at higher temperatures

isparavanjem tečnosti na višim temperaturama

or dripping the e-liquid directly onto a heated coil.

ili kapanjem tečnosti direktno na zagrejani kalem.

They can even use these devices for marijuana vaping.

Čak mogu koristiti ove uređaje i za pušenje marihuane.

And since the devices use lower temperatures

A pošto ove sprave koriste niske temperature

and do not combust or burn the marijuana,

i ne sagorevaju niti pale marihuanu,

they can do this very discreetly,

to mogu da rade vrlo diskretno,

without the distinctive smell of burnt marijuana.

bez prepoznatljivog mirisa zapaljene marihuane.

So they can really make these vape experiences their own,

Dakle, zaista mogu da pretvore iskustvo sa vejpom u lično svoje,

which may explain the astounding rise in the use of these devices by youth.

što može objasniti zapanjujući porast upotrebe ovih naprava kod mladih.

E-cigarettes are technically a very simple device.

Elektronske cigarete su tehnički vrlo jednostavne naprave.

There is a receptacle for the e-liquid which can be a tank, a pod or a plug.

Postoji posuda za tečnost koja može biti rezervoar, mahuna, tj. „pod“ ili čep.

There is a battery that charges the coil, which then vaporizes the e-liquid.

Postoji baterija koja napaja kalem, a koji zatim isparava elektronsku tečnost.

And then there is a mouthpiece,

A tu je i usnik,

where the user can actually draw from the e-cigarette.

odakle korisnik može da povuče dim iz elektronske cigarete.

In 2017, there were 466 e-cigarette devices in the marketplace.

Na tržištu je 2017. godine postojalo 466 vrsta elektronskih cigareta.

These range from cigarette-like devices which are also called "cigalikes"

Kreću se od naprava sličnih cigaretama koje se nazivaju i „cigalajk“

to tank systems, which are also called "pens."

do sistema sa rezervoarom koji se zovu i „olovke“.

And then there are modified devices, which are also called "mods."

Zatim su tu i modifikovane naprave koje se zovu „modovi“.

Mods look nothing like a cigarette,

Modovi uopšte ne izgledaju kao cigareta

and they come in various shapes and sizes,

i ima ih u raznim oblicima i veličinama,

with different kinds of attachments and user adjustments.

sa različitim vrstama dodataka i podešavanjima za korisnike.

They're very popular for cloud chasing.

Vrlo su popularni za „jurenje oblaka“.

The most recent entrance into the marketplace

Poslednje što se pojavilo na tržištu

are the pod devices,

su pod sistemi

which contain the e-liquid in a pod.

koji tečnost sadrže u kartridžu.

These are very popular, by the way, among teens.

Oni su, inače, vrlo popularni među tinejdžerima.

An example of this is the Juul,

Primer ovoga je Džul

which not only looks like a USB device

koji ne samo da izgleda kao USB uređaj,

but can also be plugged into a USB outlet to charge.

već se može i priključiti na USB ulaz da bi se napunio.

Many teens do not even think that these are e-cigarettes,

Mnogi tinejdžeri čak ni ne smatraju da su ovo elektronske cigarete,

which has led to the use of terms like "juuling" instead of "vaping."

što je dovelo do korišćenja termina kao što je „džulovanje“

umesto „vejpovanja“.

Many of these devices are so discreet and produce so little vapor

Mnogi ti uređaji su toliko diskretni i proizvode tako malo pare

that teens are using them in classrooms

da ih tinejdžeri koriste u učionicama

and hiding them in objects like Sharpie pens, their clothes,

i kriju ih u predmetima kao što su markeri, odeća,

their books.

knjige.

Now, many teens think that these devices produce water vapor,

Mnogi tinejžeri misle da ovi uređaji proizvode vodenu paru

and therefore, they are safe to use.

i da su samim tim bezbedni za korišćenje.

But this could not be further from the truth.

Ali, to je daleko od istine.

What is produced is not even a vapor,

To što se proizvodi nije čak ni para

it's an aerosol,

već aerosol,

and let me tell you, the difference is quite pronounced.

i mogu vam reći da je razlika prilično izražena.

Aerosols contain many finely suspended particles of liquids and gases

Aerosoli sadrže mnogo čestica tečnosti i gasova koje fino lebde

that are created from whatever is in the e-liquid.

i koje se stvaraju od onoga što je u tečnosti.

So an aerosol could contain propylene glycol and glycerin,

Tako aerosol može da sadrži propilen glikol i glicerin

which are solvents in the e-liquid.

koji su rastvarači u tečnosti za elektronske cigarete.

Now, these solvents are known to be safe for edible use,

Poznato je da su ovi rastvarači bezbedni za upotrebu u ishrani,

so for use in products that you eat,

dakle, u proizvodima koje jedete,

but we know very little about their safety following long-term inhalational exposure.

ali vrlo malo znamo o bezbednosti dugoročne izloženosti njihovom udisanju.

The e-liquids can also contain alcohol,

Ove tečnosti mogu sadržati i alkohol,

sometimes in high levels,

ponekad u velikoj količini,

and inhaling alcohol is known to have toxic effects on the brain.

a poznato je da udisanje alkohola ostavlja toksične posledice za mozak.

I told you earlier that the e-liquids contain over 15,000 different flavors.

Malopre sam vam rekla da ove tečnosti sadrže više od 15 000 različitih aroma.

Here are some examples,

Evo nekoliko primera,

some with very catchy but familiar names like "Skittles" and "Fruit Loops,"

među kojima neki imaju zvučna a poznata imena

kao što su „Skittles“ i „Fruit Loops“,

and others with more exotic names like "Dragon's Milk" and "Tiger's Blood"

kao i egzotičnija imena kao što su „zmajevo mleko“, „tigrova krv“

and "Unicorn Puke."

i „jednorogov izbljuvak“.

The e-liquid or the aerosol can also contain metallic particles

Tečnosti za elektronske cigarete ili aerosoli mogu imati i čestice metala

like chromium, cadmium and lead.

kao što su hrom, kadmijum i olovo.

These are generated from the heating coil in the devices

Stvaraju se iz grejnog kalema u uređajima

and are also known to have many toxic effects on vital organs.

i poznato je da imaju mnoga toksična dejstva na vitalne organe.

So no, let me make this very clear:

Dakle, ne, da jasno kažem:

what is produced is definitely not water vapor.

ono što se proizvodi definitivno nije vodena para.

Exposure of the teen brain to nicotine through e-cigarettes

Izlaganje mozga tinejdžera nikotinu putem eletronskih cigareta

is also very concerning.

takođe je veoma zabrinjavajuće.

The teen brain is very sensitive to even low levels of nicotine

Mozak tinejdžera je veoma osetljiv čak i na veoma malu količinu nikotina

and gets very easily addicted.

i vrlo lako postaje zavisan.

In fact, we have known for a long time

Zapravo, odavno znamo

that 90 percent of smokers start smoking cigarettes prior to the age of 18.

da 90 posto pušača počne da puši cigarete pre svoje 18. godine.

Those who start early are more addicted and have a harder time quitting smoking.

Oni koji počnu ranije su više zavisni i teže im je da prestanu da puše.

In other words, and to quote a past FDA commissioner,

Drugim rečima, da citiram prethodnog komesara Uprave za hranu i lekove:

"Nicotine addiction ... is a pediatric disease."

„Zavisnost od nikotina je pedijatrijska bolest.“

E-cigarettes can expose teens to a lot of nicotine.

Elektronske cigarete mogu tinejdžera izložiti velikoj količini nikotina.

Many of these devices contain the amount of nicotine

Mnogi ti uređaji sadrže količinu nikotina

that is in a full pack of cigarettes.

kao u punoj pakli cigareta.

The more recent pod devices contain a nicotine salt,

Najnoviji „pod sistemi“ sadrže nikotinsku so

which has a smoother taste and is much easier to use

koja ima blaži ukus, lakše ju je koristiti

and can produce rapid increases in brain nicotine levels.

i može brzo da poveća nivo nikotina u mozgu.

Teens who use e-cigarettes regularly report symptoms of craving --

Tinejdžeri koji redovno koriste elektronske cigarete

navode da imaju simptome snažne potrebe -

feeling anxious when they don't have their e-cigarettes.

osećanja nervoze kada nemaju elektronsku cigaretu.

All these are hallmarks of a behavioral addiction.

Sve to su odlike zavisničkog ponašanja.

E-cigarettes are not only addictive

Ne samo da elektronske cigarete stvaraju zavisnost,

but they also affect many other organs in the body.

već i utiču na mnogo drugih organa u telu.

So nicotine, which is in e-cigarettes, for example,

Tako se nikotin koji je u elektronskim cigaretama, na primer,

binds to a receptor called the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor,

vezuje za receptor koji se zove nikotinski acetilholinski receptor,

which plays a key role in the functioning of almost all organ systems

a koji ima ključnu ulogu u funkcionisanju skoro svih sistema organa

in the human body.

u ljudskom telu.

And chronic exposure to nicotine changes the functioning of these systems.

Hronična izloženost nikotinu menja funkcionisanje tih sistema.

So as an example,

Na primer,

chronic exposure to nicotine decreases the flexibility of the blood vessels

hronična izloženost nikotinu smanjuje fleksibilnost krvnih sudova

and changes how the heart responds to acute challenges like stress.

i menja način na koji srce reaguje na akutne izazove kao što je stres.

The teen brain is not only sensitive to the addictive effects of nicotine

Ne samo da je mozak tinejdžera osetljiv na stvaranje zavisnosti od nikotina,

but also to its toxic effects.

već i na njegova toksična dejstva.

In adolescent animals, nicotine is a very well-established neurotoxin,

Kod životinja adolescenata, nikotin je dobro ustanovljen kao nervni otrov,

and it decreases learning, memory and attention processes

i on ometa učenje, pamćenje i procese pažnje,

and increases hyperactivity symptoms.

a pojačava simptome hiperaktivnosti.

Teens who use tobacco products are more likely to use

Tinejdžeri koji koriste duvanske proizvode češće koriste marihuanu i alkohol

marijuana and alcohol

and also develop depression and anxiety as a teen or as an adult.

i imaju veće izglede da obole od depresije i anksioznosti kao tinejdžeri ili odrasli.

So nicotine addiction through e-cigarettes could be leading them down the path

Dakle, zavisnost od nikotina putem elektronskih cigareta

može ih voditi ka drugim zavisnostima

of other addictions and other mental health problems.

i drugim problemima mentalnog zdravlja.

Now, in adolescent animals, nicotine also produces epigenetic changes,

Kod životinja adolescenata nikotin takođe stvara epigenetske promene

or heritable changes in gene expression,

ili nasledne promene u ispoljavanju gena,

for example, in the genes involved in asthma.

na primer, u genima povezanim sa astmom.

So teens who use nicotine may not only be harming themselves

Dakle, tinejdžeri koji koriste nikotine mogu ne samo da naškode sebi,

but they could be harming their future generations.

već i budućim generacijama.

You know, the very existence of e-cigarettes

Znate, samo postojanje elektronskih cigareta

could have led to an entire generation of nicotine-addicted youth.

moglo bi da dovede do čitave generacije mladih koji su zavisni od nikotina.

Easy access to these devices could have led to more experimentation

Pristupačnost ovih uređaja može dovesti do većeg eksperimentisanja sa marihuanom

with marijuana and many other vaporizable substances by youth.

i mnogim drugim supstancama koje se udišu.

While there is no doubt that providing smokers with a cleaner form of nicotine

Mada nema sumnje da snabdevanje pušača čistijim oblikom nikotina

is and should continue to be a critical goal,

jeste i treba i dalje da bude važan cilj,

we still do not know if these devices help smokers quit smoking,

još uvek ne znamo da li ovi uređaji pomažu pušačima da prestanu da puše,

and we know very little about the long-term effects of these devices.

a ne znamo ni mnogo o dugoročnim dejstvima ovih uređaja.

What we do know is that youth -- lots of youth -- are using these devices.

Ono što znamo je da mladi - mnogi mladi ljudi - koriste ove uređaje.

In fact, the FDA commissioner recently used the term "epidemic"

Zapravo, komesar Uprave za hranu i lekove nedavno je upotrebio termin „epidemija“

to describe e-cigarette use in the US.

da bi opisao korišćenje elektronskih cigareta u SAD-u.

While trying to solve one huge public health problem, cigarette smoking,

Dok smo pokušavali da rešimo jedan veliki problem javnog zdravlja, pušenje cigareta,

we may have created another colossal one.

možda smo stvorili drugi ogroman problem.

Our lack of vigilance in the earlier years around cigarette smoking

Naš nedostatak opreznosti ranijih godina u vezi sa pušenjem cigareta

led to a cigarette epidemic and many, many cigarette-related diseases.

doveo je do epidemije cigareta i mnogih oboljenja vezanih za pušenje.

We do not want to repeat the same mistakes with e-cigarettes.

Ne bismo da ponovimo istu grešku sa elektronskim cigaretama.

So now is the time for action,

Dakle, sada je vreme za akciju,

for regulations that address the appeal and access of these devices to youth.

za propise koji se odnose na privlačnost i pristupačnost ovih uređaja mladima.

Do smokers really need 15,000 kid-friendly flavors to quit smoking?

Da li pušačima zaista treba 15 000 aroma privlačnih za decu da bi prestali da puše?

Do they need so many different kinds of devices?

Da li im je potrebno toliko različitih vrsta uređaja?

Is it a good idea to have devices which are so easy to hide

Da li je dobra ideja imati uređaje koje je tako lako sakriti

and so easy to use?

i tako lako koristiti?

We recently heard that the FDA plans to introduce stricter regulations

Skoro smo čuli da Uprava za hranu i lekove planira da uvede strožije propise

on sales of these devices that contain e-liquid flavors

u vezi sa prodajom ovih uređaja koji sadrže tečnost sa aromama

in retail locations like convenience stores and gas stations,

na maloprodajnim lokacijama kao što su prodavnice i benzinske stanice,

and also introduce stricter regulations

kao i da uvedu strožije propise

on sales of devices to minors over the internet.

vezane za prodaju uređaja maloletnicima putem interneta.

Is this going to be sufficient to change this rapid increase in youth uptake?

Hoće li to biti dovoljno za promenu naglog porasta u konzumiranju kod mladih?

We need to ask and answer such critical questions.

Moramo da postavljamo ta ključna pitanja i odgovorimo na njih.

Now is also the time for a serious public education campaign.

Sada je, takođe, vreme za ozbiljnu javnu obrazovnu kampanju.

Teens and their parents need to know

Tinejdžeri i njihovi roditelji moraju da znaju da,

that while e-cigarettes may contain less toxins than cigarettes,

iako elektronske cigarete možda sadrže manje otrova od cigareta,

they're certainly not benign.

svakako nisu bezopasne.

Exposure of their bodies to the chemicals produced by these devices

Izlaganje njihovih tela hemikalijama koje proizvode ovi uređaji

could be changing them in ways they may not like

može ih menjati na način koji im se možda neće svideti

and setting them up for future unknown toxicities and health problems.

i pokrenuti nepoznata otrovna dejstva i zdravstvene probleme u budućnosti.

You know, when I said earlier

Znate, kada sam malopre rekla

that e-cigarettes were a perfect fit for the smartphone generation,

da se elektronske cigarete savršeno uklapaju u generaciju pametnih telefona,

I was not kidding.

nisam se šalila.

We live in a technology-crazed world,

Živimo u svetu koji ludi za tehnologijom,

where the latest device and technology gets a lot of attention

u kome najnoviji uređaji i tehnologija privlače mnogo pažnje

just because it is technology and because it is the latest thing.

samo zato što se radi o tehnologiji i zato što je nešto najnovije.

More and more over the next few years and for the rest of our lives,

Sve više ćemo tokom narednih nekoliko godina i tokom ostatka života

we are going to see technologies coming into the marketplace

sretati tehnologije koje stižu na tržište

that may not raise any health flags at first,

koje možda u početku neće podići uzbunu,

simply because they don't look unhealthy

jednostavno zato što ne izgledaju nezdravo

or they're not a medical device.

ili zato što nisu medicinska sprava.

For example, we could see devices

Na primer, mogli bismo videti uređaje

that may make it easier to go longer without sleep

koji bi nam olakšali da duže izdržimo bez spavanja

or help us lose weight --

ili da nam pomognu da smršamo, što je moj lični cilj,

a personal goal of mine --

or achieve any number of other goals

ili da postignemo bilo kakav drugi cilj

that we as consumers are very, very interested in.

koji nas veoma zanima kao korisnike.

But many of these devices may come with unacceptable risks to our own health.

Ali, uz mnoge ove uređaje idu neprihvatljivi rizici po zdravlje.

So if we want to protect our health and the health of our children,

Zato, ako želimo da zaštitimo svoje zdravlje i zdravlje naše dece,

perhaps we should get out of the habit

možda bi trebalo da prekinemo sa navikom

of automatically celebrating such new technology

da automatski slavimo takve nove tehnologije

and get into the habit of looking at them with a critical eye,

i da usvojimo naviku da ih kritički sagledamo,

perhaps even through a medical lens.

možda čak i iz medicinske perspektive.

Because, you know something?

Jer, znate šta?

Our health, the health of our children and our future generations

Naše zdravlje, zdravlje naše dece i naših budućih generacija

is far too valuable to let it go up in smoke --

suviše je dragoceno da bismo dopustili da nestane u oblaku dima

or even in aerosol.

ili čak aerosoli.

Thank you.

Hvala.
