There is evidence that inhaling cigarette smoke causes health problems not only for smoker but for non-smokers who inhale other people’s smoke. In view of this, smoking should be banned in all public places, even though this would restrict some people’s freedom and action. What are your views?

It is undeniable that smoking is harmful to health not only for smokers but

also

for people who do not

smoke

.

Therefore

, it should be banned to encourage people to stop smoking,

although

this

will affect human’s rights. While I agree with

this

idea, I

also

think that we should consider the smoker’s freedom at the same time. On the one hand, smoking can cause detrimental issues. What I mean is that smoking releases toxic chemicals into the air which can cause lung cancer and fatal diseases. For those who do not

smoke

, it is not pleasant or healthy to smell

smoke

while eating in a restaurant or working in an office.

Moreover

, smoking

also

seriously affects children, not only in terms of health but

also

in terms of bad habits.

For example

, when a child sees people smoking in public

places

, they may think it is cool and try to

immitate

Correct your spelling

imitate

.

On the other hand

, it is argued that banning smoking in public

places

will affect smokers’ freedom.

That is

to say, they would have the right to

smoke

wherever they want. What’s more, many

places

such

as bars and pubs will be affected as a significant number of their customers are smokers. The act of banning smoking in all public

places

will make them lose customers and alleviate their profit. All in all,

although

smoking has a negative impact on people’s health and should be banned in public areas, suitable

places

should be paid attention to so that smokers can find their own space for their enjoyment.
