Step-by-step explanation:

1.Lack of thorough, unbiased, and accurate education on different types of substances and their individual associated risks, including alcohol.

2.Illegal/restricted/unregulated status of substances which incentivize & empower black markets. Easier for youth to access than alcohol.

3.Entertainment (movies, music, tv, etc.) inaccurately portraying or glamorizing substance use & partying (also including alcohol).

4.Propaganda and false information spread about substances which blurs the line between fact and myth surrounding any substance, diminishing trust in what can be believed to be true from any figure and establishment of authority.
