Smoking tobacco is one of the most dangerous addictions which usually leads to death. Lethal cases from cigarettes are enormous and continue to grow. It seems to be clear that today smoking is a global problem in society.
First of all, it is well-known fact that nicotine used in cigarettes is a highly addictive substance. It is narcotic that influences human brain in a bad way causing addiction and various health problems such as cancer, high blood pressure and many others. However, tobacco and cigarettes are still available almost everywhere in the world.
Another worrying problem is that smoking tobacco harm not only direct users but also people who are nearby. It has already proven that such form of smoking called passive smoking damages health just the same as smoking itself. Though, in spite of the law that bans smoking in public places, there are still possibilities to become passive smoker. Many people still smoke in cars or homes.
What is needed to combat these problems is definite action. The government should totally ban tobacco itself. Strong measures should be taken to stop it. Those who can’t stop smoking due to their addiction have to be medically threatened. Such actions would save billions of lives every year.
To conclude, I think that tobacco is a real social problem that brings lots of deaths in 21st century. That’s why it should be solved in the nearest future with the strong help and support from government as well as health care institutes.
