No Smoking In Public

Have you ever breathed in smoke from somebody nearby and thought, “could I get sick from that?” In some places there is no smoking allowed. There is a debate going around to see if smoking should be allowed or shouldn’t. Most people smoke in public, but according to researchers, smoking in public is bad for everyone’s health.

First, researchers say that smoking is bad for your health and can cause serious problems with health. “Researchers find that smoking bans can reduce the number of heart attacks  by as much as 26 percent per year.” Smoking can cause many deaths and most people that smoke usually die of a heart attack and we want to reduce that.  “According to projections by the author’s a nation wide ban  on public smoking could prevent as many as 154,000 heart attacks per year.” Smoking bans can save lives because many people die from heart attacks from smoking. So if we ban smoking we will have a more healthy economy. In conclusion, smoking is bad for your health and if we ban it we can prevent deaths.

Secondly, people that don’t even smoke can get sick from people that do. ”Even breathing in low doses of cigarette smoke can increase the risk by 30 percent.” From that evidence you can tell that even from breathing in low doses even if you don’t smoke you can get sick. “Second hand smoke increases the risk of a heart attack by 30 percent.” By bringing secondhand smoke to public, more people will get sick. As you can see, by banning smoking in public, it will benefit people that don’t smoke by not getting sick.

Lastly, some people say you can just avoid smokers but smoking is also toxic to our environment. “Researchers have now declared outdoor tobacco smoke as a toxic air pollutant.” Smoking in public is ruining our environment and especially when it’s outside. “Smoking is worse than exhaust for air pollution.” Also, “Three cigarettes can cause more air pollution than a diesel car’s exhaust, according to Italian study.” Do you know how much smoke that is? Well let me tell you, it’s a lot and it’s hurting our environment and us. As you can tell, smoke is killing our planet, especially smoking in public.

In conclusion, Most people smoke in public but, according to researchers smoking in public is bad for everyone’s health. First, researchers say that smoking in public is bad for your health and can cause serious problems with health. Secondly, people that don’t smoke  can get sick from people that do. Lastly, Smoking in public is toxic to our environment. As you can see, smoking in public is bad for the planet and people, smoking should be banned.
