Effects Of Smoking In Restaurants
Smoking in restaurants
"One thousand Americans stop smoking everyday – by dying" said by anonymous. If smoking is killing people every day, why would we want
someone to poison ourselves with deadly air? When we are in a restaurant and someone is smoking we are breathing the same air that they are. Even
though their lips are on the cancer stick the same toxins they are breathing in is being released in the air around them. Without proper ventilation (open
fresh air), the people around the light cigarette would be breathing in those same toxins and poisons, which is second hand smoking. Smoking in a
restaurant is not only harmful to the one smoking but to those around them. Smoking can cause loss of appetite, senses, side effects from second
smoking and most of all the rights of a nonsmoker to not be presented to the smoke. When going into a restaurant, a person wants to enjoy their meal
and time. Especially if they are going and spending money on the luxury. But did you know that smoking can cause loss of appetite and loss of
senses? When someone is smoking they ingest toxins such as tar and carbine monoxide, which causes the loss of appetite and senses? So, if someone
is going to a restaurant they want to digest the food and drinks that they plan to order not toxins that causes loss of appetite and senses. In the book
"Truth About Smoking", it concludes about the harms of smoking and the harm that smoking has on the mouth. Smoking causes gum disease, staining
and loss of teeth as well as bad breath. "When tar, the solid particles in tobacco smoke that collect in the lungs, mixes with saliva in the mouth, it coats
the teeth. Teeth take on a brownish color, and flat surfaces where the tar can accumulate can even become black, are all results of smoke staining teeth.
Which can also cause wear on the biting surface of the teeth which leads to teeth decay. With gum disease the gums recede, they expose the roots of the
teeth. The bacteria in the gum pockets don't just attack the tissue of the gums, they weaken the bone and the connective tissue that holds the teeth in
place. The residue of cigarette smoke remains on the breath, including the tar particles that stain the teeth. What happens is Saliva washes

Persuasive Essay On Smoking
Killer in Disguise What is second–hand smoke? Secondhand smoke is a mixture of mainstream smoke (the smoke exhaled by the smoker) and
sidestream smoke (the smoke given off by a burning tobacco product). According to Centers of Disease Control, "at least 69 of the toxic chemicals in
secondhand tobacco smoke cause cancer." The problem with secondhand smoke is the effect that it has on others. SHS can cause a variety of cancers
and health issues. Mainstream smoke contains smaller chemicals that enter the lungs and blood faster. Imagine what it would be like to have cancer
or a major health problem, due to someone else's stupidity. "Secondhand smoke causes 41,000 deaths per year" as claimed by the Centers of Disease
Control. Secondhand smoke is just as bad as smoking an actual cigarette itself; smokers do not realize that secondhand smokers so not get the chance to
decide whether to inhale or not. The main health risk of secondhand smoke is cancer causing agents. Secondhand smoke has higher concentrations of
cancer–causing agents and it is more toxic than mainstream smoking. Secondhand smoke contains smaller particles than the actual smoke itself,
allowing them to get into the non–smokers bloodstream and lungs much faster. Lung cancer is found in smokers and those who have never smoked in
their life. Cancer is the biggest health risk of secondhand smoke, but there are also other health risks that people need to be aware of. Secondhand
smoke is a significant risk factor for

Cigarette Smoking Satire
We have all been there in line waiting to purchase something from the store; we step up for our turn take out money that we believe should be
enough only to find out that we forgot to count in the taxes and now have to dig into our purse, wallet or pocket to find the extra change, or in some
cases dollars. There is a joke that there are a few things we are guaranteed in life, taxes and death. While it may be a joke it holds a fair amount of truth,
depending on where you live. Taxes are everywhere "invisible" or obvious taxes, but lets focus more closely on the taxes involving cigarettes. To me
as a non smoker it makes sense and I am for it, taxes help the governments budget and other areas. However one must begin to wondered the effects

Cigarette smuggling and bootlegging do not necessarily lower the benefits of cigarette taxes as one would think. "20% of cigarettes consumed in the
UK are smuggled." (David Merriman) Although this seems like a high percentage it does not lead to a decrease in health. This is because "... even
when smuggling is possible, cigarette taxes generally will raise the marginal producer's cost which will, in turn cause cigarette prices to increase and
smoking to decline." (David Merriman) Overall it seems that despite different "attacks" against tax increases, the fact that companies have to increase
their prices will cause a reduction in cigarette

It is common knowledge now that smoking is bad, so we should not do it, right? Not necessarily, there are many things that are bad for us but we
still do them anyways such as eating fast food. Everyone knows anything that has been deep fried is horrible for your health but we still do it because
we like it, and the same goes for smoking. Like other things, smoking can be acceptable in moderation. But some may question this because smoking
not only hurts the one smoking, but others around them. There are ways for nonsmokers to avoid smokers and there are ways for smokers to avoid

According to the National Cancer Institute, about 250 chemicals in secondhand smoke, of the 7,000, are known to be harmful and seventy of them can
cause cancer (Johnson). "The study of 11 moderately dependent cigarette smokers and 13 nonsmokers found 1 hour of secondhand smoke in an
enclosed space resulted in nicotine reaching the brain, in smokers and nonsmokers alike, to bind nicotinic acetylcholine receptors that are normally
targeted by direct exposure to tobacco smoke. Secondhand smoke also evoked cravings among the smokers, suggesting that it may deliver a
priming dose of nicotine to the brain that contributes to continued cigarette use in smokers" (Hampton). These are just some of the effects of
secondhand smoke, the list goes on. It is made clear simply from the list I have compiled that secondhand smoke it just as bad as smoking itself and
it is understandable for someone to want to ban cigarettes. The child who died from secondhand smoke did not choose to smoke nor inhale it from
his or her parents, along with thousands of other people who die due to exposure to secondhand smoke. It is tragic that people do die from
secondhand smoke when they are not choosing to smoke but the smokers are harmed even more. Smoking does not just affect the lungs, it can affect
the mouth and larynx and cause cancer in these areas as well (Yanbaeva). The smoke in the lungs causes inflammation which leads to cytokines being

The ad shows rhetoric appeal in pathos and ethos because of its accusational statement, "Smoking isn't just suicide, it's murder." The Chilean
Corporation Against Cancer's ad tries to pertain to nonsmoker and smokers to persuade this audience to either stop smoking or stop others from
smoking around them for the sake of their progeny. The attitude of the ad is accusational because it is accusing smokers of being not only suicidal but
murders as well. The bag over the kid's head represents the cigarette smoke entering his lungs and suffocating him. The ad tries to appeal to the parental

Cigarette Smoking
Cigarette smoking causes about one of every five deaths in the United States each year (CDC 1). Tobacco has been in America's society for hundreds
of years but has become a major problem in the 21st century because of the harsh problems it carries. Tobacco use is starting to affect everyone. Every
day, large amounts of Americas youth are being introduced to cigarettes and othertobacco related products. The number of teen smokers is rising and
even non–smokers are now being affected. Steps need to be taken in order to reduce and ultimately eliminate tobacco use in America. Smoking is being
introduced to large amounts of youth every day and needs to be put to an end to stop this killing trend.
The percentage of Americas youth who smoke cigarettes has slowly started to decline since 2012. The CDC believes that a way of ending tobacco
use is stopping it early. Tobacco use is primarily started at a young age. About 9 out of every 10cigarette smokers first tried smoking by age 18 (CDC
1). As reported by the CDC, approximately 3,200 Americans aged 18 and under try their first cigarette every day. To add to that number, about 2,100
teens become daily smokers (CDC 1). There are many ways of smoking tobacco that appeal to youth. Other ways besides the common cigarette are
flavored tobacco, hookah and smokeless tobacco. These alternatives have gained popularity due to their variety. Flavored tobacco and hookah offer a

people that worship nicotine. Id honestly love to be a part of that. I mean, I love the smell of it in the air, the feeling of polluted air. Nothing gets better
than that. In reality smoking is the only relief to take away pain these days. I mean, what other reason would people put something so horrible into
their body if it didn't relieve any type of stress or good feeling. I live for the day to see everyone to have lung cancer and killing themselves for just
being vulnerable about stress relief. I mean, people preach smoking nowadays. People wanna go back to the way of smoking in a restaurant and

Deaths caused by smoking have reached epidemic proportions. In the United States alone, 430,000 people die annually from smoking–related illnesses
such as cancers and lung disease. Stephen Jay, chair of the Department of Public Health at Indiana University School of Medicine, states that tobacco's
"human toll far exceeds the Black Death of the 14th century, the global influenza pandemic of 1918–19, and the modern tragedy of HIV–AIDS."
Health care advocates, concerned about tobacco–related deaths and illnesses, have worked tirelessly to discourage cigarette smoking in the United

Reynolds's Joe Camel advertising campaign, which debuted in 1988. Joe Camel was a cool, sunglasssporting, leather–jacket–wearing cartoon character
featured on billboards and in magazine ads. According to one 1991 study published in the Journal of the American Medical Association, Joe Camel
was as easily recognized by six–year–olds as Mickey Mouse. It was not long before this highly recognizable figure began to attract young smokers.
By 1995, 13.3 percent of teen smokers smoked Camel cigarettes, a fact that led antismoking groups to accuse R.J. Reynolds of marketing tobacco
specifically to minors.
Some commentators reject the claim that such advertising leads to more teen smoking. Social ecologist Mike Males, for example, notes that although
the Joe Camel campaign may have influenced teens' choice of cigarette brand, it did not necessarily increase the number of teen smokers. In fact,
Males says in his book Smoked: Why Joe Camel Is Still Smiling, "more [tobacco industry] ad/promo spending is correlated, though not significantly,
with slightly lower rates of teen smoking." And according to one survey by the National Institute of Drug Abuse (NIDA), teen smoking actually
decreased more rapidly in the five years following Joe Camel's debut than the five years prior. Regardless of these statistics, the harsh criticism R.J.

Impact of peer social network on smoking behavior Introduction: Smoking has already become a major problem among adolescent since long term
smoking behavior may lead to many health hazards including different types of cancer, cardiovascular disease, and respiratory diseases. According to
the policies of different countries in the world, the legal smoking age or legal age for purchasing tobacco varies from 16 year–old to 21 year–old. In
the United States, most of states have set the legal smoking age from 16 to 21. However, based on report from CDC, every day more than 3200
adolescents start their first cigarettes before 18 years old. Another report from CASA (the National Court Appointed Special Advocate Association)
reveals that many high school students have used additive substance including tobacco. At the same time, tobacco industries treat adolescent as their
future customer and start promotional campaigns to encourage teenage initiation of smoking process. People in the country start worrying about the
consequence of adolescent smoking behavior including addictive substance abuse. At the same time, although no direct evidence proves that all
smokers will increase their smoking intake, research has shown that early initiation of smoking will finally lead to habituation in life (Pierce and

One of the aspects that are argued is the freedom of choice. Freedom of choice mandates if a person wants to smoke they should be able to. While
the freedom of choice issue is debated and measures are taken to assist people in breaking their addiction to smoking there are strong reasons for
implementing a nationwide ban on smoking in bars and restaurants. Smokers want to be able to enjoy a cigarette following their meal or while they sip
their drinks. They have lobbied to stop bans around the country and threatened to boycott any business that voluntarily places a ban on smoking in their
establishment.
For a long time, the hospitality industry maintained that if nonsmokers didn't like smoke, then they shouldn't go into places that allowed it. Few buy
that argument any more. Nonsmokers want to go where they want and not have to suffer exposure to smoke as the price they pay. TheTobacco Industry
fights smoke–free laws because smoke–free laws result in a decline in the consumption of tobacco products, an increase in the cessation rate among
smokers, and an overall decline in the social acceptability of smoking. This all spells bad news for tobacco industry profits according to the Americans

Also a great deal of smoker complain of 'smokers cough'. This is due to our bodies way of trying to get rid of the tar that has settled in the bronchial
tubes, by producing extra mucus to clean the lungs. So if smoking is proved to cause all these health hazards and repulsive things then why do people,
including the young, smoke?
Tobacco first arrived in the 16th century, and many Europeans started to smoke as they believed tobacco contained medicine, which was good for
their health. Today it is well known that the opposite is true and the reason so many people may hate smoking but cant give up is because cigarettes
contain a chemical called nicotine. Nicotine gives a person many good feelings, these feelings you get are what draw you back for another cigarette.
Nicotine causes rapid relief of adrenaline which feels good and it's effects are:
* Rapid heartbeat
* Increased blood pressure
* Rapid, shallow breathing
It also makes you eat less and some people find this a good thing but it is definitely not. It causes you to think that you have no sugar unlike the weight

Smoking cigarettes can give you lung cancer because you are taking in the smoke into your lungs and it has nicotine and other chemicals that are

goes un–noticed is how long it has to spread lowering the chances of it being cured" according to Website (What Are Risk Factors for Lung

Argumentative Essay On Smoking
The Smoking Gun
Although the harmful effects of smoking are thought to be well–known, there are a surprising number of people who are unaware of these risks.
People enter public parks and walk down the street smoking without thinking about everyone they are affecting. Although the number of smokers in the
United States is much lower than it used to be, it is still much higher than it should be. The majority of people begin smoking because they are
influenced by people around them, which leads to an addiction. If the amount that people are seen smoking is limited, then the number of new smokers
should drop drastically. Smoking in public places should be restricted to specific spots due to the health hazards occurring not only to the smoker, but
also to others around them in the form of secondhand smoke and the influence on the younger generation.
Smoking is typically known to be dangerous and unhealthy, so why are people still smoking and why did they ever smoke? Smoking began around
6000 BC, when it was thought to be helpful for medical purposes, such as balancing the four humors, because the smoke was hot and dry (Wright
408). Currently, science shows that the four humors are not what balances health and this practice is no longer relevant. So why do people still
smoke? According to the Cancer Research center, smoking was thought to be more beneficial than harmful, due to the stress relieving and appetite
suppressing qualities; smoking began to decline in the 1970's due to the realization of all its damaging effects (Wright 408). Only fifty years ago
smoking was thought to be healthy, so societies addiction to smoking has not quite subsided, but it is time the government lends a hand by outlawing
smoking outside of designated areas. Other factors, such as societal influence, affect the fact that people are still smoking even though the evidence
shows it is harmful. Although the number of smokers has decreased since 1970, smoking is yet to be eliminated and continues to be a presence
effecting today's youth.
By smoking in public places, like parks, smokers are causing harm they almost certainly never think about. Not only is it detrimental to the smoker
themselves, but they are encouraging the next generation

If the selling of cigarettes is made illegal, all of these companies would completely be out of business and thousands of workers would have lost their

our nation is already losing even more money from having smoking part of our society. For example, about 75 billion dollars of extra money is
spent just on medical care for people with smoking related health problems. Because of this large demand for healthcare, every family in the nation
spends about 600 extra dollars on taxes each year to cover these costs. An additional 50 billion dollars is lost in productivity each year, due to the costs
of the tobacco industry. I think that all of this money should be used for different things such as scientific research or education. Instead of spending
money on cigarettes, our government should be using its money on things that make positive affects on our country and its people. Passive smoking

Some governments have banned smoking in all public places. Smoking has been proven to be very dangerous to health. Nonetheless 40 % of the

In my opinion they should introduce them at the earliest possible moment. I totally agree with the decision, that somebody wants to smoke the
company must set up a smoking areas in the workplace. I don't think it takes away some of their freedom, because they take my freedom in that i must
breathe the cigarette smoke every day. Many people will agree that smoking is easy to start and hard to quit. By the way they don't even think about
whether they disturb non–smokers with their smoke. Personally this is the major problem with some smokers.
Disadvantages of smoking
As far as I am concerned, the main problem with smoking is that it causes lung and mouth cancer, and not just in smokers. I dislike yellow teeth or
bad breath. From my point of view there are a large number of impressionable people who are easily influenced and might try to pick up their peers
habits. As they want to be similar to them. In my opinion this is a foolish thing. I don't want to be somebody else, and I don't want to be suitable for
somebody either. Hopefully in the future people are going to give smoking careful thought.

Effects Of Smoking In Restaurants

  • 1. Effects Of Smoking In Restaurants Smoking in restaurants "One thousand Americans stop smoking everyday – by dying" said by anonymous. If smoking is killing people every day, why would we want someone to poison ourselves with deadly air? When we are in a restaurant and someone is smoking we are breathing the same air that they are. Even though their lips are on the cancer stick the same toxins they are breathing in is being released in the air around them. Without proper ventilation (open fresh air), the people around the light cigarette would be breathing in those same toxins and poisons, which is second hand smoking. Smoking in a restaurant is not only harmful to the one smoking but to those around them. Smoking can cause loss of appetite, senses, side effects from second smoking and most of all the rights of a nonsmoker to not be presented to the smoke. When going into a restaurant, a person wants to enjoy their meal and time. Especially if they are going and spending money on the luxury. But did you know that smoking can cause loss of appetite and loss of senses? When someone is smoking they ingest toxins such as tar and carbine monoxide, which causes the loss of appetite and senses? So, if someone is going to a restaurant they want to digest the food and drinks that they plan to order not toxins that causes loss of appetite and senses. In the book "Truth About Smoking", it concludes about the harms of smoking and the harm that smoking has on the mouth. Smoking causes gum disease, staining and loss of teeth as well as bad breath. "When tar, the solid particles in tobacco smoke that collect in the lungs, mixes with saliva in the mouth, it coats the teeth. Teeth take on a brownish color, and flat surfaces where the tar can accumulate can even become black, are all results of smoke staining teeth. Which can also cause wear on the biting surface of the teeth which leads to teeth decay. With gum disease the gums recede, they expose the roots of the teeth. The bacteria in the gum pockets don't just attack the tissue of the gums, they weaken the bone and the connective tissue that holds the teeth in place. The residue of cigarette smoke remains on the breath, including the tar particles that stain the teeth. What happens is Saliva washes Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 2. Persuasive Essay On Smoking Killer in Disguise What is second–hand smoke? Secondhand smoke is a mixture of mainstream smoke (the smoke exhaled by the smoker) and sidestream smoke (the smoke given off by a burning tobacco product). According to Centers of Disease Control, "at least 69 of the toxic chemicals in secondhand tobacco smoke cause cancer." The problem with secondhand smoke is the effect that it has on others. SHS can cause a variety of cancers and health issues. Mainstream smoke contains smaller chemicals that enter the lungs and blood faster. Imagine what it would be like to have cancer or a major health problem, due to someone else's stupidity. "Secondhand smoke causes 41,000 deaths per year" as claimed by the Centers of Disease Control. Secondhand smoke is just as bad as smoking an actual cigarette itself; smokers do not realize that secondhand smokers so not get the chance to decide whether to inhale or not. The main health risk of secondhand smoke is cancer causing agents. Secondhand smoke has higher concentrations of cancer–causing agents and it is more toxic than mainstream smoking. Secondhand smoke contains smaller particles than the actual smoke itself, allowing them to get into the non–smokers bloodstream and lungs much faster. Lung cancer is found in smokers and those who have never smoked in their life. Cancer is the biggest health risk of secondhand smoke, but there are also other health risks that people need to be aware of. Secondhand smoke is a significant risk factor for Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 3. Cigarette Smoking Satire We have all been there in line waiting to purchase something from the store; we step up for our turn take out money that we believe should be enough only to find out that we forgot to count in the taxes and now have to dig into our purse, wallet or pocket to find the extra change, or in some cases dollars. There is a joke that there are a few things we are guaranteed in life, taxes and death. While it may be a joke it holds a fair amount of truth, depending on where you live. Taxes are everywhere "invisible" or obvious taxes, but lets focus more closely on the taxes involving cigarettes. To me as a non smoker it makes sense and I am for it, taxes help the governments budget and other areas. However one must begin to wondered the effects taxes on one of the biggest markets in the United States have, for those who do smoke and those who enjoy an, excuse my banter, but live shaver. It should seem obvious that when a tax on any item is increased that it will agitate the part of the population that enjoys that item or...show more content... Cigarette smuggling and bootlegging do not necessarily lower the benefits of cigarette taxes as one would think. "20% of cigarettes consumed in the UK are smuggled." (David Merriman) Although this seems like a high percentage it does not lead to a decrease in health. This is because "... even when smuggling is possible, cigarette taxes generally will raise the marginal producer's cost which will, in turn cause cigarette prices to increase and smoking to decline." (David Merriman) Overall it seems that despite different "attacks" against tax increases, the fact that companies have to increase their prices will cause a reduction in cigarette Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 4. It is common knowledge now that smoking is bad, so we should not do it, right? Not necessarily, there are many things that are bad for us but we still do them anyways such as eating fast food. Everyone knows anything that has been deep fried is horrible for your health but we still do it because we like it, and the same goes for smoking. Like other things, smoking can be acceptable in moderation. But some may question this because smoking not only hurts the one smoking, but others around them. There are ways for nonsmokers to avoid smokers and there are ways for smokers to avoid nonsmokers. People just need to try and change things rather than sit around and complain about it. Why should something such as smoking, which is a personal...show more content... According to the National Cancer Institute, about 250 chemicals in secondhand smoke, of the 7,000, are known to be harmful and seventy of them can cause cancer (Johnson). "The study of 11 moderately dependent cigarette smokers and 13 nonsmokers found 1 hour of secondhand smoke in an enclosed space resulted in nicotine reaching the brain, in smokers and nonsmokers alike, to bind nicotinic acetylcholine receptors that are normally targeted by direct exposure to tobacco smoke. Secondhand smoke also evoked cravings among the smokers, suggesting that it may deliver a priming dose of nicotine to the brain that contributes to continued cigarette use in smokers" (Hampton). These are just some of the effects of secondhand smoke, the list goes on. It is made clear simply from the list I have compiled that secondhand smoke it just as bad as smoking itself and it is understandable for someone to want to ban cigarettes. The child who died from secondhand smoke did not choose to smoke nor inhale it from his or her parents, along with thousands of other people who die due to exposure to secondhand smoke. It is tragic that people do die from secondhand smoke when they are not choosing to smoke but the smokers are harmed even more. Smoking does not just affect the lungs, it can affect the mouth and larynx and cause cancer in these areas as well (Yanbaeva). The smoke in the lungs causes inflammation which leads to cytokines being released which draw in Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 5. Smoking Ethos Pathos Logos The ad shows rhetoric appeal in pathos and ethos because of its accusational statement, "Smoking isn't just suicide, it's murder." The Chilean Corporation Against Cancer's ad tries to pertain to nonsmoker and smokers to persuade this audience to either stop smoking or stop others from smoking around them for the sake of their progeny. The attitude of the ad is accusational because it is accusing smokers of being not only suicidal but murders as well. The bag over the kid's head represents the cigarette smoke entering his lungs and suffocating him. The ad tries to appeal to the parental view of childhood innocence, the parental fear of the child losing its innocence; also, the natural parental instinct to protect their children Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 6. Cigarette Smoking Cigarette smoking causes about one of every five deaths in the United States each year (CDC 1). Tobacco has been in America's society for hundreds of years but has become a major problem in the 21st century because of the harsh problems it carries. Tobacco use is starting to affect everyone. Every day, large amounts of Americas youth are being introduced to cigarettes and othertobacco related products. The number of teen smokers is rising and even non–smokers are now being affected. Steps need to be taken in order to reduce and ultimately eliminate tobacco use in America. Smoking is being introduced to large amounts of youth every day and needs to be put to an end to stop this killing trend. The percentage of Americas youth who smoke cigarettes has slowly started to decline since 2012. The CDC believes that a way of ending tobacco use is stopping it early. Tobacco use is primarily started at a young age. About 9 out of every 10cigarette smokers first tried smoking by age 18 (CDC 1). As reported by the CDC, approximately 3,200 Americans aged 18 and under try their first cigarette every day. To add to that number, about 2,100 teens become daily smokers (CDC 1). There are many ways of smoking tobacco that appeal to youth. Other ways besides the common cigarette are flavored tobacco, hookah and smokeless tobacco. These alternatives have gained popularity due to their variety. Flavored tobacco and hookah offer a wide assortment of flavors that are appealing. Hundreds of Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 7. Examples Of Satire On Smoking Satire It's not surprising that in this world you see at least one person a day smoking. I mean, who doesn't love watching people rush to get lung cancer? Seeing one person just taking their life away with something so stoppable, is so adorable, I mean what other qualities would you look for in a man? I like mine fully addicted and ready to waste their life away. It's the best religion that I must say so myself. In fact, I like that, people rely on something like religion to lead them in the way they want to live their life. I personally believe in the smokies. The smokinese are a group of people that worship nicotine. Id honestly love to be a part of that. I mean, I love the smell of it in the air, the feeling of polluted air. Nothing gets better than that. In reality smoking is the only relief to take away pain these days. I mean, what other reason would people put something so horrible into their body if it didn't relieve any type of stress or good feeling. I live for the day to see everyone to have lung cancer and killing themselves for just being vulnerable about stress relief. I mean, people preach smoking nowadays. People wanna go back to the way of smoking in a restaurant and people recommend it, it's a religion that's being created without anyone understanding. As the smokinese people believe that the only way to live a happy and stress free life is to become addicted to smoking, they sure are right.

  • 8. Essay on Teen Smoking is Bad Deaths caused by smoking have reached epidemic proportions. In the United States alone, 430,000 people die annually from smoking–related illnesses such as cancers and lung disease. Stephen Jay, chair of the Department of Public Health at Indiana University School of Medicine, states that tobacco's "human toll far exceeds the Black Death of the 14th century, the global influenza pandemic of 1918–19, and the modern tragedy of HIV–AIDS." Health care advocates, concerned about tobacco–related deaths and illnesses, have worked tirelessly to discourage cigarette smoking in the United States through education campaigns that warn the public about the potential health dangers of tobacco use. A particular target for these antismoking messages is...show more content... Reynolds's Joe Camel advertising campaign, which debuted in 1988. Joe Camel was a cool, sunglasssporting, leather–jacket–wearing cartoon character featured on billboards and in magazine ads. According to one 1991 study published in the Journal of the American Medical Association, Joe Camel was as easily recognized by six–year–olds as Mickey Mouse. It was not long before this highly recognizable figure began to attract young smokers. By 1995, 13.3 percent of teen smokers smoked Camel cigarettes, a fact that led antismoking groups to accuse R.J. Reynolds of marketing tobacco specifically to minors. Some commentators reject the claim that such advertising leads to more teen smoking. Social ecologist Mike Males, for example, notes that although the Joe Camel campaign may have influenced teens' choice of cigarette brand, it did not necessarily increase the number of teen smokers. In fact, Males says in his book Smoked: Why Joe Camel Is Still Smiling, "more [tobacco industry] ad/promo spending is correlated, though not significantly, with slightly lower rates of teen smoking." And according to one survey by the National Institute of Drug Abuse (NIDA), teen smoking actually decreased more rapidly in the five years following Joe Camel's debut than the five years prior. Regardless of these statistics, the harsh criticism R.J. Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 9. Impact of peer social network on smoking behavior Introduction: Smoking has already become a major problem among adolescent since long term smoking behavior may lead to many health hazards including different types of cancer, cardiovascular disease, and respiratory diseases. According to the policies of different countries in the world, the legal smoking age or legal age for purchasing tobacco varies from 16 year–old to 21 year–old. In the United States, most of states have set the legal smoking age from 16 to 21. However, based on report from CDC, every day more than 3200 adolescents start their first cigarettes before 18 years old. Another report from CASA (the National Court Appointed Special Advocate Association) reveals that many high school students have used additive substance including tobacco. At the same time, tobacco industries treat adolescent as their future customer and start promotional campaigns to encourage teenage initiation of smoking process. People in the country start worrying about the consequence of adolescent smoking behavior including addictive substance abuse. At the same time, although no direct evidence proves that all smokers will increase their smoking intake, research has shown that early initiation of smoking will finally lead to habituation in life (Pierce and Gilpin, 1995). CASA study compared adolescent with and without smoking behavior and found that those young adolescent with smoking behavior are 5 times more likely to drink and Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 10. Smoking Satire Health over Habit: The Smoking Epidemic Public smoking has been an issue for people who do not take part in the smoking epidemic for as long as smoking has been around. What people need to understand is that individuals who do not engage in the activity of ruining their lungs are being forced into the act of involuntary smoking rather they like it or not, and that is unacceptable. I whole heartedly feel the government should intervene and ban public smoking, with no exceptions. Now when we talk about the government doing something like banning all smoking in public; the questioned in posed "is the government over stepping it boundaries?" the answer to that is; I don't think so.

Secondhand smoke is by far, worse than first hand smoke, and the effects of it are immediate on the cardiovascular system. Secondhand smoke causes numerous health problems, especially in infants and children, including more frequent and severe asthma attacks, respiratory infections, ear infections, and sudden infant death syndrome (SID). Not to say adults are safer, secondhand smoke is also linked to stroke, impaired lung function, Lung cancer, coronary heart disease, nasal irritation, lower respiratory illness, and reproductive effects in women. All these are prevalent in first hand smokers as well, and if we were to get into third hand smoking then the topic would no longer be banning smoking in all public places but rather, ban smoking in Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 11. Persuasive Essay On Smoking During the past few decades it has come to light that smoking kills. The federal government mandates that every pack of cigarettes carry a warning on it that smoking can lead to health problems including death. But the messages are rather clinical, for example: "Smoking Causes Lung Cancer, Heart Disease, Emphysema, and May Complicate Pregnancy." Smoking is a danger to one's own health but there is now evidence that smoking can affect others as well. Second hand smoke has been shown to cause cancer. Second hand smoke has been shown to produce the same negative health effects that smoking first hand does. Cities across the nation are taking it upon themselves to address the issue of smoking in public place because of the evidence about the...show more content... One of the aspects that are argued is the freedom of choice. Freedom of choice mandates if a person wants to smoke they should be able to. While the freedom of choice issue is debated and measures are taken to assist people in breaking their addiction to smoking there are strong reasons for implementing a nationwide ban on smoking in bars and restaurants. Smokers want to be able to enjoy a cigarette following their meal or while they sip their drinks. They have lobbied to stop bans around the country and threatened to boycott any business that voluntarily places a ban on smoking in their establishment. For a long time, the hospitality industry maintained that if nonsmokers didn't like smoke, then they shouldn't go into places that allowed it. Few buy that argument any more. Nonsmokers want to go where they want and not have to suffer exposure to smoke as the price they pay. TheTobacco Industry fights smoke–free laws because smoke–free laws result in a decline in the consumption of tobacco products, an increase in the cessation rate among smokers, and an overall decline in the social acceptability of smoking. This all spells bad news for tobacco industry profits according to the Americans for Nonsmokers' Rights (Tobacco's). Another of the arguments by the tobacco industry is that smokers and nonsmokers can both be Get more content on HelpWriting.net

Tobacco first arrived in the 16th century, and many Europeans started to smoke as they believed tobacco contained medicine, which was good for their health.

  • 16. Argumentative Essay On Smoking The Smoking Gun Although the harmful effects of smoking are thought to be well–known, there are a surprising number of people who are unaware of these risks. People enter public parks and walk down the street smoking without thinking about everyone they are affecting. Although the number of smokers in the United States is much lower than it used to be, it is still much higher than it should be. The majority of people begin smoking because they are influenced by people around them, which leads to an addiction. If the amount that people are seen smoking is limited, then the number of new smokers should drop drastically. Smoking in public places should be restricted to specific spots due to the health hazards occurring not only to the smoker, but also to others around them in the form of secondhand smoke and the influence on the younger generation. Smoking is typically known to be dangerous and unhealthy, so why are people still smoking and why did they ever smoke? Smoking began around 6000 BC, when it was thought to be helpful for medical purposes, such as balancing the four humors, because the smoke was hot and dry (Wright 408). Currently, science shows that the four humors are not what balances health and this practice is no longer relevant. So why do people still smoke? According to the Cancer Research center, smoking was thought to be more beneficial than harmful, due to the stress relieving and appetite suppressing qualities; smoking began to decline in the 1970's due to the realization of all its damaging effects (Wright 408). Only fifty years ago smoking was thought to be healthy, so societies addiction to smoking has not quite subsided, but it is time the government lends a hand by outlawing smoking outside of designated areas. Other factors, such as societal influence, affect the fact that people are still smoking even though the evidence shows it is harmful. Although the number of smokers has decreased since 1970, smoking is yet to be eliminated and continues to be a presence effecting today's youth. By smoking in public places, like parks, smokers are causing harm they almost certainly never think about. Not only is it detrimental to the smoker themselves, but they are encouraging the next generation Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 17. Essay about Should Smoking Be Illegal? One of the largest and most problematic health issues in our society is smoking. Smoking is currently the leading cause of death in our country, due to its harmful and addicting contents, such as nicotine and tobacco. Although millions die from it each year, smoking is the single most preventable cause of death as well. Without smoking, a tremendous amount of money and lives will be saved. I think that our country should ban smoking and the production of cigarettes in order to maintain a healthier nation. Currently in our nation, about 22 % of the people smoke, which is about 60.7 million people. All of these people are losing about 12 years of life, just by smoking.

If the selling of cigarettes is made illegal, all of these companies would completely be out of business and thousands of workers would have lost their job. These companies would be put in debt because they could no longer make a profit. Although it would be for the best, the entiretobacco industry would be outraged if smoking became illegal. Even though tobacco companies would lose hundred of millions of dollars by going out of business, our nation is already losing even more money from having smoking part of our society. For example, about 75 billion dollars of extra money is spent just on medical care for people with smoking related health problems. Because of this large demand for healthcare, every family in the nation spends about 600 extra dollars on taxes each year to cover these costs. An additional 50 billion dollars is lost in productivity each year, due to the costs of the tobacco industry. I think that all of this money should be used for different things such as scientific research or education. Instead of spending money on cigarettes, our government should be using its money on things that make positive affects on our country and its people. Passive smoking occurs when someone inhales the smoke of someone smoking nearby. This can occur in restaurants, hotels and even at home.

With the increase of cigarette smoking, not only will the sales of them help the economy, but so will the increase of jobs in manufacturing, tobacco farming, and many other great career paths. Now, onto the topic of the supposed "life threatening" risks of smoking cigarettes that people have been so vocal about. People that smoke aren't oblivious to these risks; they're clearly printed on the front of every pack. If a smoker isn't going to listen to all of these scientific sources, what makes them think they would listen to you? The truth is, most smokers know that smoking is killing them, and they should accept this fact willingly. Smokers get to experience the wondrous effects of cigarettes throughout their lifetime, and won't have to live until they're inevitable senility. Smokers know that living until they're old is pointless, because when you're old you lose even more relevancy than you had when you were young. Pick up smoking and die early, so that you can preserve your dignity instead of being laughed at as a feeble old man/woman.

Many people will agree that smoking is easy to start and hard to quit. By the way they don't even think about whether they disturb non–smokers with their smoke. Personally this is the major problem with some smokers. Disadvantages of smoking As far as I am concerned, the main problem with smoking is that it causes lung and mouth cancer, and not just in smokers. I dislike yellow teeth or bad breath. From my point of view there are a large number of impressionable people who are easily influenced and might try to pick up their peers habits. As they want to be similar to them.
