“The Harmful Effects of Smoking”

“The Harmful Effects of Smoking”

Do you know that smoking causes harmful effects? Well it does. It causes emotionally, mentally, and physically effects. Smoking is really harmful for those who smoke and the ones who don’t. It might sound weird but if you were to be smoking next to someone the smoke would be inhaled by the other person and also cause that person harm. That is called second hand smoke. Do you have any idea how much idea how many people die because of smoking? If you don’t there will be some statistics provided below.
·    Around 6 million deaths a year are caused by tobacco.
·    Every 6.5 seconds a current or former smoker dies, according to the World Health Organization (WHO).
·    1 in 100 people around the world die from secondhand smoke each year.
·    Health officials have known that more than 1 billion people around the world smoke and 5 million people die each year from tobacco-related illness.
I hope this has helped you reflect that if you are a current smoker to become sober and if you haven’t smoked don’t start. CTR!
