It’s not just about enforcing but also about convincing the public to abandon harmful practices.
Yao Ming, already known as a basketball star, helped a lot with spreading awareness about shark fin soup in China and compelling people to no longer eat it.
That’s not to say it will 100% stop a practice from happening, though using the right people as figureheads for a message is still effective at changing behaviors.
