Smoking is harmful for health!

It is necessary for the society to be aware about the prohibition of smoking because smoking can hollow out the dreams of our young generation from within.

It would not be wrong to say that in this blind race of modernity, the youth have started walking on many such wrong paths, which lead any civilized society towards downfall. One of these is smoking, which is taking the world on such a wrong path where the world will only suffer.

Today, about 115 billion people smoke in the world. Out of which 82 percent are from low and middle income countries.

Tobacco related diseases like cancer, heart disease, respiratory disease have already become a big problem in many countries and in India, an estimated 12 million cases of tobacco related diseases can be seen every year. About 50 percent of cancer cases in men are tobacco-related, while 60 percent of people under 40 who suffer from heart disease smoke.

The tobacco industry needs to attract new smokers to replace those who have died from tobacco use. Tobacco sales remain high, 11,000 new tobacco users are needed every day to replace those who have died. A lot of money is spent on advertising to make smoking look fashionable.

The younger the age at which smoking starts, the longer the smoking cycle. Young smokers are more likely to be affected because they are unaware of the addictive nature of nicotine and the ill effects of tobacco. In most developing countries, adolescents and young adults make up a significant percentage of the population. It has been proven that almost all tobacco users started using before the age of 18 and so the tobacco industry in developing countries seeks to attract young people to increase their sales and make up for their losses in developed countries. The number of teenagers using tobacco is already a cause for concern.

Quitting smoking also has a positive effect on our social life. Smoking can be a socially isolating habit, as many people now prefer to avoid places where smoking is permitted. By quitting, we can improve our social life and enjoy more activities with our friends and family.

Quitting smoking is a responsible choice that can help protect the health of those around us. Smoking can cause a wide range of health problems. By quitting smoking we reduce the risk of harmful effects of smoking, not just to ourselves but to those around us.

“Through the ban on smoking, new energy can be generated in the youth, this new energy enables the youth to work for the welfare of the society.”
