These days there are not alot of places to smoke. In many countries, it's not allowed in public places and inside buildings. They can only smoke out of those places or the small rooms for smoking. Smokers would feel uncomfortable about it. On the other hand, it's very good thing for non-smokers. Then is it right to do this? I think it is defenitely right. There are some reasons suporting it.
First of all, smoke from cigarret is a big trouble to non-smokers. They are really sensitive to it and they have the right to breathe clean air and not to disturbed by others. In addition, second-hand smoking brings serious damage to them. It may be sound harsh but I think it's kind of crime. i heard that in America, women who got cancer because of living with her husband who was a smoker accused him in court and she won. It shows that smokers are harming non smokers by smoking.
Secondly, it can help smokers to quit smoking. If they can hardly find where to smoke, It would be bothersome to look for those places and they would't want to do it anymore. Smoking is really harmful to human's body. The rising rate of lung cancer of smokers prove it. In addition, in some countries, cigarret is considered one of the drugs. those are showing how dagerous and hazardous smoking is. If someone quits smoking, the benefits from it go to nobody but oneself.
in conclusion. smoking is harmful to not only smokers but also people around them. Eventhough smokers insist it can relax them, it is the same function as drug does and it's the biggest reason of them getting more addicted and jeopardizing their bodies. So I strongly agree with the opinion and I think it has to be done more strictly. |
