The positive impact of smoking has not been found in an article or public opinion except profits for producers and the vendors. That there was calls and calls from various parties to avoid such thing as a cigarette. However, until today, despite many appeals and warnings about the dangers of smoking, but still many people on this earth who smoke.
In fact, everyone knows that the negative effects of smoking are many and varied for the health of the human body. Such as tar, nicotine, substance, and chemical gases in cigarettes it is common knowledge has the potential to germinate so many diseases. In the packaging alone is a warning.
but why do many people still smoke cigarettes? whereas in cigarettes that can harm our health. Do they not think cigarettes are the enemy of health?

Hi cssiduyz! I believe that everyone know the consequences of smoking. But what about those who aren't smokers? It is proven that breathing in second-hand smoke causes more harm to our health than those smoking. People that aren't smokers are twice as likely to get cancer than those that smoke. People smoke to show others how 'cool' they are. Some just let their curiosity get the better of them and are now hooked on smoking. Some just gave in to peer pressure. What can i say? The world is changing so fast.

Hi wonga94.
My parents were heavy smokers. They had smoked for years, in the same rooms of the house as my sister and I breathed. Yet there couldn't have been more robust and healthier children than we were. And guess what? We're still two healthy and robust adults, neither of us smoking nor suffering any respiratory problems, let alone cancers. Well, that's how it was for us, anyway. Maybe we were lucky.

IMpact of smoking is not as great as pollution from cars. When smoking only affects individuals or some others near to them, it's still safer than smokes emitting from car exhaust. Comparing the number of smokers to amount of cars on the roads, which is more dangerous, and higher rate of killing someone? NOt all smokers are unhealthy, and not all non smokers are healthy too.
