Nowadays, more people have been interested in some problems related to their health since people pursue happiness in life. Therefore, lots of people insisted that smoking should be prohibited for smokers and others in public areas. I agree with the statement and in this essay, I will consider several reasons for the idea.
First of all, smoking is harmful to smokers and other people, we call second hand smoker. Many research have shown that passive smokers could have more serious diseases such as lung cancer and laryngeal cancer. Besides, smoking is extremely harmful to pregnant person and children who stay near by smokers. Accordingly, many passive smokers can be physical and psychological victim of smoking.
Young people may think smoking can be acceptable as they see many adults smoking. To tell the truth, many children are exposed to a smoking environment when their parents smoke. It is bad to their health and it is not a good example for the children.
Finally, smoking processes environmental problems and wasting money. Many smokers throw away their cigarette butts to public areas such as roads. It is not good or environment. In addition, a large amount of money is spent to cure diseases caused by smoking. Also, some people waste their money on buying cigarettes individually.
To sum up, I agree smoking should be banned in public areas. The reasons why I agree are because smoking is harmful to everybody, especially many innocent people, physically and mentally. Also, smoking caused environmental problems and wasting money. |
