The colour olive green is the latest weapon in the ongoing1 battle between the Australian government and big tobacco. Under aggressive new proposals, billed as the toughest in the world, every packet of cigarettes sold in Australia would be packaged in that colour after research showed that olive green was the most off-putting for smokers2.

Logos and any form of distinct branding would be completely banned. Instead, the brand names would appear in a standard size and font, making them as bland3 and anonymous4 as possible. A greater area of the packaging would also be taken up with grotesque5 pictures of cancerous tumours6 and the health effects of tobacco.

Claiming a global first, the Australian government says it wants to remove any remaining glamour7 from cigarettes, but the big tobacco companies have questioned the legality of the legislation.

Worried about the possible worldwide knock-on effects of Australia introducing such stringent8 regulations, they've vowed9 to put up a fight - saying the new measures infringe10 international trademark11 and intellectual property laws.
