I really cannot understand why someone would deliberately do something to there body which is going to send them to an early grave, and yes I know some people have grandparents or friends who have been smoking for years and have never encountered any problems. Yes, that may be the case for that lucky few but it’s not for the vast majority of people.
Cancer is in most families. It is a horrific disease that kills hundreds of thousands of people worldwide every year. Yes, people do die of cancer every year that is nothing to do with tobacco smoke but 90% of people who die of lung cancer die of tobacco related causes. Approximately 30% of all cancer deaths are smoking related and in 2005 there were 46,000 smoking related deaths in the UK.
Although the numbers of people smoking have gone down in the last 50 years it is still totally necessary to ban it all together. Think about it. If you ban smoking then the lives of hundreds of thousands of people will be saved every year, they will also have a lot more money because smoking is not a cheap habit to have. If your smoking 30 a day that’s about £15 spent every day on cigarettes so in a year you could save yourself about £5475. Which is quit a lot of money to spend on killing yourself, if you think about it that way.
By banning cigarettes you will not only be saving yourself, your bank balance and your physical appearance but also the planet. Think of all the fumes and smoke that you’re pumping into the atmosphere, I doubt that’s helping the growing global worry about climate change.
Banning cigarettes is the best possible thing to do. Smoking is neither cool nor clever it is possibly one of the most ridiculous things that I can think of doing. And it is beyond my belief the amount of people that do smoke. And these people are not all old men but young teenage girls, who often start young and can never quit, and have far better things to do be doing than pumping themselves full of rubbish.
So if you want to save the world and the lives of millions of people then ban smoking and save mankind.
