Many countries have now banned smoking in public places. Some people feel that government should ban smoking entirely. Do you agree or disagree?
Nowadays, smoking in public spaces has been prohibited in some
countries
. Some individuals think that smoking should be absolutely banned. From my perspective, I strongly agree with the above statement and this
essay will illustrate the reasons.
To begin
with, it is an undeniable truth that smoking directly impacts people's health not only smokers
but also
others who breathe in the same area. Much research shows that 2nd hand smokers
who are close to smokers
such
as family and friends have a chance to have lung diseases such
as lung cancer. To reduce the healthcare system's workload on lung diseases, smoking should be prohibited in the country.
Furthermore
, even if some countries
already banned smoking in public areas, there are many private areas that allow individuals to smoke. For example
, people still can pull out cigarettes at home or at some restaurants. Moreover
, although
there is a law in some countries
that state the minimum age of people who can purchase cigarette, it is commonly known that some retailers sneakily sell them to children. If government totally remove all drugs and cigarette in the country, it will also
solve this
issue. Thus
, the government should issue a law to entirely prohibit smoking in every place.
To conclude, with all reasons taken into account, it is my contention that smoking must be entirely banned in countries
similar to other drugs as it puts citizen health in danger for both direct and indirect smokers
. Therefore
, cigarette prohibition laws should be issued and enforced.Submitted by PIMFUNSUK on
