Ban of Public Smoking
Ladies and gentlemen, Secondhand, or passive smoke, is an insidious killer that is harming adults, and more critically, children around the country every day. [1]My goal in speaking to you today is to enlist your support in a federal ban of all smoking from all public places without hesitation.
[2]Firstly, second hand smoke can cause many serious illnesses and diseases. For example, second hand smoke increases the risk of heart disease by 25-35%. [3]And the chance of lung cancer is increased by 19% when in contact with second hand smoke. People are exposed to smoke in many places so the risks of diseases related to smoking are increasing even in non-smokers. [4]In addition, children exposed to secondhand smoke have an increased risk of colds, and respiratory and lung problems. This can lead to many lost days of school, hospitalizations, and in some cases, even death in children.
[5]Secondly, smoking is a cause of pollution. There is a lot of research that shows that many kinds of gases which are released by smoking and are harmful for the environment, such as tar and carbon dioxide. [6]Tobacco smoke has a very high content of fine particulate matter or PM2.5, the EPI indicator for air pollution. A cigarette in the mouth of a passerby may represent more than just an occasion to hold one’s breath. It may be a pollutant potent enough to rival a passing car. A 2004 study conducted by researchers at Italy’s National Cancer Institute compared the output of three lit cigarettes and a diesel engine. After 30 minutes of continuous exposure in. a controlled garage, the scientists found that the cigarettes released ten times the particulate matter of the engine.
[7]Thirdly, smoke-free environments can lead to more smokers quitting. When a smoker tries to quit, they may see others smoking in public and this can cause an urge to smoke. [8]In a survey, it was reported that about 7 out of 10 smokers want to quit, and they believe that a smoke-free environment will help them. Each day more than 3800 people under 18 try their first cigarette. Of those 3800, 1000 begin smoking cigarettes on a daily basis. When kids see people smoking, they may think that it’s "cool’; and they will try smoking for the same reason. Therefore, smoke-free environments are really important if we seriously consider quitting of smoking.
[9]Lastly, smokers have other ways to receive nicotine. Smokers can use products instead of smoking. [10]Nowadays, we have many substitutes to receive nicotine, such as nicotine gum and nicotine patches. Do you really want people to smoke in public places instead of using these new products?
In conclusion, I want to say that there are no reasons left to permit smoking in public places, and I also think that maybe this is the time for people to quit smoking. Banning smoking is not just for us, but for this world and for everyone who has to live in this world after us.
