Smoking prohibition is a widely-spread controversial issue. Whilst some people believe that smoking should be banned in public places, others have a diverse view because the latter discern that preventing cigarettes would be a violation of their civil liberties. I completely agree that the smoking should be forbidden and smokers have to pay high taxes. In the following lines, I intend to explore a thorough presentation of my perspective along with my opinion. On one hand, smoking has many

effects on the human health. Cigarette consists of

and nicotine, which are responsible for soaring the blood pressure, which in turns, leads to various life-threatening problems.

For example

, lung cancer, heart failure and many brain-related illnesses are amongst the atrocious impacts of substance abuse on human organs.

In addition

Thus

On the other hand

For example

although

it may be stated that the

should not be banned because it is considered as a pivotal source of national income, I still have the view that the smoking should be prohibited. I recommend that the government and public figures should increase the awareness of individuals against smoking and its dangers.
