In some countries, people are no longer allowed to smoke in many public places a

nd office buildings. Do you think it is a good rule or a bad rule? Use specific
reasons and details to support your position.
---------------------------------------------------
I strongly opine that ban on Smoking at public places is a good rule.
Smoking is Cancerous is a proven fact. Cancer is an extremely dreadful and life
taking disease. Thanks to the health researchers who have found that passive smo
king is much more harmful. Active smoking is done by the smoker himself and Pass
ive Smoking is done by the people near him by way of inhaling the smoke exhaled
by the active smoker. Passive smoke causes allergies to many, particularly asthm
atic patients may get severe asthmatic attack and may need immediate hospitaliza
tion and may be required to be put on clinical oxygen. Animals are highly allerg
ic to smoke. Particularly tiny and tender pets like cat, dog and birds are over
sensitive and feel hard to breathe and start coughing badly. Hence persons havin
g pets must never smoke.
Smoking causes diseases like: -
Cancer, Bronchitis, Asthmas, Impotency in men,
Still-birth in case of women. Heart Attack, Loss of teeth
Those who smoke in air-conditioned offices and houses, cause many times more har
m to themselves and be others too who visit and sit in their room for business o
r social visits.
Smokers exhale many injurious gases with smoke those are inhaled by passive smok
ers. Smoking pollutes the environment and that is unhealthy. In order to maintai
n healthy environment smoking must be banned at public places and offices.
Summarizing, in the interest of the well being of the public by large, exercisin
g of ban on smoking at public places by the respective government is right and a
good rule.
