Why Young Australians Are Putting Down the Bottle

from The Swanston Explainer · host The Swanston Explainer

Young Australians are drinking less than ever before. Many of them are choosing to put down the bottle entirely. We spoke to two young Australians about why they don't drink, and discussed the different reasons why young people aren't drinking. Whether it's having hangovers so bad they never drink again, cost of living pressures and alcohol tax combining to create a cost of beer crisis, or an increase in illicit drug use.
