Tobacco consumption kills nearly 6 million people each year according to the World Health Organization. Smoking involves inhaling smoke from tobacco and is most commonly practiced through cigarette smoking. The effects of smoking include suddenly raising blood pressure, reducing blood flow to organs like the heart and lungs, increasing risk of diseases like heart disease, diabetes and cancer. Chewing tobacco and other forms of smokeless tobacco also carry health risks like cancer and leukoplakia. The WHO warns that if current trends continue, tobacco could cause one billion deaths in the 21st century and that quitting tobacco adds 20 years to one's life.
Nicotine is one of the most addictive drugs, and smoking increases the risk of cancer. Cigarettes contain over 4,000 chemicals including nicotine, ammonia, acetone, arsenic and carbon monoxide. Smoking causes permanent changes in the brain and 80% of ex-smokers will return to smoking within a month of having one cigarette. Tobacco use is linked to many adverse health effects like heart disease, lung cancer, and emphysema and is the leading cause of preventable death. Most smokers become addicted before age 18 and it is difficult to quit once addicted.
The document outlines the health risks of smoking, including various tobacco-related diseases that can lead to death such as lung cancer, heart attack, and stroke.

Smoking has been widespread in Britain since the 16th century, though its health risks were not firmly established until the 1950s. Currently, about 12 million British adults smoke, with rates highest among younger people and those from manual socioeconomic groups. Smoking causes over 100,000 deaths per year in the UK due to increased risks of cancer, heart disease, and respiratory illness. While some believe there are benefits to smoking like stress relief, evidence shows smokers have higher stress levels and that smoking provides only temporary relief through addiction, not actual stress reduction.

Tobacco is a plant containing nicotine, a highly addictive chemical. It is most commonly used in cigarettes, cigars, and pipes. Tobacco use kills over 6 million people worldwide each year and leads to cancer, lung disease, and other health issues. While tobacco companies advertise it as cool or attractive, the document warns that it is extremely addictive and dangerous, especially for young people whose lungs are still developing. The summary concludes that tobacco kills many Americans and that its use and advertising should be better regulated due to the significant health and safety risks.
Tobacco is highly addictive due to its nicotine content. Tobacco use is the single largest preventable cause of death worldwide, killing over 6 million people annually. Cigarette smoking is the most common method of tobacco consumption and contains over 4000 toxic chemicals and 60 carcinogens. Tobacco use has been linked to many forms of cancer as well as other diseases. Unless action is taken, tobacco deaths are projected to rise to over 1 million annually by 2025.
1. Smoking causes immediate physical harm to the body. It damages lungs, strains the heart, and causes teens to cough, wheeze, and produce excess phlegm. Teens who smoke also perform worse physically and get sick more often.
2. Smoking a pack of cigarettes per day will cost approximately €1800 per year based on a €5 per pack price.
3. Nicotine is highly addictive. About two-thirds of young smokers want to quit but less than half succeed after only a couple years of smoking due to addiction.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UPRAHUL
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.

3. Smoking
Active smoking is
the intentional
inhalation of
tobacco smoke
by a smoker.
Smokers puff
directly from the
cigarettes.
Passive smoking
is the involuntary
inhalation of
smoke from
tobacco
products. Such
smoke is called
secondhand
smoke (SHS) or
environmental
tobacco smoke
(ETS).
4. Active and passive smoking causes serious
and invalidating consequences for human
body and environment:
• About 650.000 people die each year
because of smoking;
• About 79.000 adults die every year because
of passive smoke.
5.
6. • Tobacco is the
largest cause of
avoidable death in
EU accounting for
over half a million
deaths each year
and over a million
deaths in Europe as
a whole. It causes:
• 25% of all cancer
deaths.
• 15% of all deaths in
EU.
7.
8. Even if tobacco sales
are banned to minors,
the largest part of
them takes up the
habit of smoking
under 16 years old.
Many of them, by
their 20s, wish they
had never started.
9. Someone who starts smoking aged 15
is three times more likely to die
of cancer due to smoking
than someone who starts
in their late 20s.
10. Most of the smoke
from a cigarette goes
into the air.
Children with parents
who smoke inhale the
same amount of
nicotine as if they
themselves smoked
60-150 cigarettes per
year…
13. 7000 people suffer
from passive
smoking in
workplaces and
enclosed places
such as restaurants,
bars, pubs and
casinos.
14.
15.
16. Just one cigarette can
cause nicotine
addiction.
In fact the nicotine from
one cigarette is enough
to saturate the nicotine
receptors in the human
brain.
Nicotine alters the
structure and function of
the brain just within a
day of the very first
dose.
17.
18. A cigarette
contains about
4000 toxic
chemicals but the
composition does
not appear on the
packets.
These are the
main toxic
chemicals
contained in a
cigarette and
their common use.
22. Smoking and 2° Hand Smoke kill more people each
year than Alcohol, Cocaine, Crack, Heroin, Homicide,
Suicide, Car Accidents, Fires and AIDS combined:
Smoking 400,000
Accidents 94,000
2nd
Hand Smoke
38,000
Alcohol 45,000
HIV/AIDS 32,600
Suicide 31,000
Homicide 21,000
Drugs 14,200
23. Damage can be
reduced with
nicotine
replacements such
as gums and
patches with small
percentages of
nicotine.
24. To fight nicotine addiction
people can turn to
medications that do not
contain nicotine, such as
Bupropion.
25. Everyone believes to know the dangerous
effects caused by smoking, but
unfortunately only who has really tried
them on his skin, really knows the
consequences of this even more
widespread habit.
Here is Bryan’s story…
26. Bryan started smoking
when he was just 13,
building up to more than
two packs a day. He
talked about quitting from
time to time, but never
seriously tried…
30. He figured that only older
people got cancer. Not
people in their 30s, not
people who worked in
construction, as a roofer,
as a mechanic.
31. He had no health
insurance. But he was
more worried about his
mother, 57, who had
smoked since she was
25.
32.
33. Bryan knew how hard it
is to quit. But when he
learned he would die
because of his habit, he
thought maybe he could
persuade at least a few
kids not to pick up that
first cigarette.
34. Maybe if they could see
his sunken cheeks, how
hard it was becoming to
breathe, his shriveled
body, it might scare them
enough.
38. Tobacco and Ethichs
The consumption of
tobacco causes a rise of
poverty in developing
countries.
In fact 75% of smokers in
the world live in
developing countries and
use the 4-5% of their
families’ incomes to buy
tobacco.
39. The 72% of all children,
in the 100 countries that
produce tobacco, works
in tobacco plantations
or for some
multinationals.
They are involved in 22
different work
activities…and can
contribute to a third of
the labour input….
But what’s the other side
of the coin?
40. Children exploitation !!!
• Why don’t we protect less
developed countries from tobacco
industry and apply European
standards to all activities of
Europe-based companies,
indifferent to the final destination
of goods?
42. If you go smokefree:
• You will reduce your risk of developing
illnesses;
• You will protect the health of those around
you;
• You will reduce the chances of your children
suffering from asthma;
• You will improve your fertility levels;
• You will improve your breathing;
• You will enjoy the taste of food more.
Health advantages
43. How will your lifestyle improve?
• You will save money;
• You will no longer smell of stale tobacco;
• The appearance of your skin and teeth
will improve;
• You will feel more confident in social
situations;
• Your home will smell fresh

45. The EU and a large part of Member
States have been implementing
new smoke-free legislation to
protect non-smokers.
The Commission has been
consulting on what to do for the
most comprehensive EU-level
action towards a smoke- free
Europe.
