Although smokers claim that smoking helps them relax and release stress, smoking has nothing positive, but harms human health. Cigarette smoking is linked to numerous negative effects that not only affects the health of smokers, but also detriments the heath of people around them.

What astonishes me is how a lot of people prefer to smoke, even though they know that cigarettes are dangerous. The legality of production and sale of cigarettes often makes me wonder if different governments around the world are aware about the catastrophes that cigarettes smoking causes. Are we going to let cigarettes poison our kids and slowly destroy our future as well as our plane? There are a lot of important reasons why production and sale of cigarettes should be made illegal. Smoking is among the top causes of death in America. According to the journal of national cancer institute, smoking kills four hundred and thirty four thousands Americans each year comparable to one thousand and two hundreds people per day which is equivalent to fifty people per hour.
