Medical studies have shown that smoking not only leads to well-being problems for the smoker but
also
for people close by. Linking Words
As a result
of Linking Words
this
, many believe that smoking should not be allowed in public areas. Linking Words
Although
there are arguments on both sides, I strongly agree that a prohibition is the most appropriate course of action. Opponents of Linking Words
such
an injunction argue against it for several reasons. Linking Words
Firstly
, they say that passive smokers make the choice to breathe in other people’s smoke by going to a zone where it is allowed. If they would prefer not to smog passively, Linking Words
then
they do not need to visit points where smoking is permitted. Linking Words
In addition
, they believe an embargo would possibly drive many bars and pubs out of business as smokers would not go there anymore. They Linking Words
also
argue it is a matter of freedom of choice. Smoking is not against the law, so individuals should have the freedom to smoke where they wish.

However
, there are more convincing arguments in favour of a restriction. Linking Words
First
and foremost, it has been proven that tobacco consists of carcinogenic compounds which cause serious harm to a person’s wellness, not only to the smoker. Anyone around them can develop cancers of the lungs, mouth and throat, and other sites in the body. It is simply not fair to impose Linking Words
this
upon another person. It is Linking Words
also
the case that people’s well-being is more important than businesses. In any case, pubs and restaurants could adapt to a ban by, Linking Words
for example
, allowing smoking areas .
In conclusion, it is clear that it should be made illegal to smoke in public neighbourhoods. Linking Words
This
would improve the health of thousands of people, and Linking Words
that is
most definitely a positive development.Linking Words
