Tobacco smoke in our environment has been observed as a major pollution factor in the overall air quality. It does just as much as an manufacturing industry, cars, trucks, cows, or any other factor. People seem to overlook this problem. Think about it the next time you go anywhere. There is cigarette tobacco smoke everywhere you go. There are enormous clouds of it, and it pretty much can stench up several blocks during break times. Even driving down the road there are people with open windows on their cars smoking away as much as they can. They cannot stand their own smoke, so they blow it out their windows for others to suffer from it.
If carbon pollution is truly a major factor in global warming, then cigarette-tobacco smoke is also to blame. It may even be mostly to blame because in 3rd world countries, European countries, the United States, China, and all industrialized countries – every one of them have this same awful habit. Billions of people smoke. Billions of tobacco smokers are polluting our world without a care. It seems ludicrous that cow emissions are supposedly to blame, when in fact the “scientists” overlook what is really stenching up the air and replacing oxygen with carbon dioxide – tobacco.
I go outside into my backyard, and the neighbors all around are sitting on their patios smoking away. I have to run back into the house before it starts another asthma attack. This is the reason that it is so noticeable to me, because I have to avoid tobacco smoke daily. There is so much more to this than anyone wants to admit to, whether or not they smoke, simply because everyone knows someone that smokes, and supports their “right” to pollute the world and cause enormous health problems in others. It is well known in the medical community that “passive” smoking causes bronchitis, asthma, and emphysema, and even contributes to the onset of tuberculosis.
The only reason we are now making laws against smoking in restaurants after centuries of this abuse of smoking is because the cigarette smoke destroys the wonderful flavors the food has that the restaurant owners are trying to sell. If everything ends up tasting like smoke to non-smokers, then no one comes to buy their meals. Then the customers who do not smoke, but wish to eat in peace, stay away. Economically, it’s a good idea. However, the true reason to outlaw cigarette and tobacco smoking in general should go deeper than this. It is severely destroying the health in consenting adults who smoke (who think it’s cool- erroneously) and also their family members who do not smoke, but have no choice in the matter. It is so addicting they live in continual denial that smoking causes any harm at all. If they do admit it causes harm, then they justify it by saying, “I could go out and get hit by a bus tomorrow, anyway. So what’s the difference?” This is total stupidity. You probably are not going to get hit by anything, except lung cancer, and the odds are against you on that one.
Smokers clog up their brains because their veins become like cardboard, and become brittle and congested with plaque. We all know this, but I say they are unable to think clearly because the brain is all clogged up from the effects of smoking, and so therefore unable to see the dangers they are in, and what they are putting their families through. They seem to really not care, but I say they are unable to care. They do not notice that their family members are constantly sick with viruses, that they cough all of the time, that their misery is caused by what they are doing to them. The only reason they could be so blind to it is the smoking is causing their brains to malfunction.
Smokers also complain that cigarette smoking does not cause them to be sick, or coughing, so why should it bother others? Guess what, this is a clue that their immunity system is not working, that the cough response, which is a natural thing to expel vile substances from the body, has been destroyed by smoking. Smokers who quit notice an increase in illnesses, and it is because their bodies are finally able to expel the crap they have inhaled willingly for years. It is a good thing, not a bad one. The increase in stronger tobaccos from the greedy tobacco companies are making it harder for people to quit. They should all be imprisoned for addicting people by increasing the addictive powers, and putting extra harmful substances in their tobacco. Running a Google search will bring up what the tobacco companies add to their product. Just put in “tobacco additives” and see what comes up. It’s almost a guarantee you will begin thinking about quitting smoking after reading some of it. Of course the tobacco companies downplay everything, but one cannot believe a thing they say. They are far too greedy to care about anyone’s health, even their own. Their brains are clogged up with nicotine, as well.
People should begin to take notice how much tobacco smoke is expelled into the air by so many people on a daily basis. It is far more than our cars are doing. Why blame everything else except this one major cause of air pollution?
