Did you know that tobacco diseases kill more than 400,000 people every year? And also there are 4,000 chemicals in a cigarette and 200 known poisons. People shouldn’t smoke because it causes death, pregnant women would harmful there children, and also people wouldn’t save money.
Should people be able to smoke? My solution is that people who smoke in restaurants should get a fine.

There are 10 billion young people aged 12-18 live in a household with a least one smoker.
Everybody knows that women that are pregnant shouldn’t smoke, but did you know that women that are pregnant and smoke are more likely to have an ectopic pregnancy. An ectopic pregnancy is an abnormal pregnancy that occurs outside the womb (uterus). Although when women smoke during pregnancy their babies are mostly like to be born with birth affects, low birth weight, but pregnant women exposed to second-hand smoke are also at increased risk of having low birth weight babies.
According to the website www.cancer.org smoking increases asthma attacks in about 200,000 to 1 million people who have asthma and also there about 3,400 lung cancer deaths per year. Another thing is that more than 750,00 ear infections are caused by smoking. Also did you know that a cigarette has 4,000 chemicals, but it also has 200 known poisons?
All things considered smoking can cause death, people wouldn’t save money, and pregnant women will harmful there babies, so lets stand together to stop this death stick from harming lives.
