SMOKING IN PUBLIC PLACES

A group of people assumes that smoking makes them please for many reasons although it is realised that smoking is harmful. My question is if they realise the disadvantages of smoking, why do they still do it even in public places? Unconsciously, they disturb or harm their selves, the others and the nature. For this reason, I against smoking from three aspects: economy, social, health.
If we see from the economy aspect, smoking is bad for the economy condition of the people. For one thing, smoking is a waste activity. On the other hand, while smoking is addictive, people become consumptive. It is a must for the addicted people to spend some money for buying cigarette. Although, smoking can enrich the country, it is better for the people to allocate the money to develop the country. IDR 10,000 a day can be used to buy newspaper, fruits, or anything else which are more useful. Fruit can make people healthy; newspaper can make people more aware to the environmental status or even inspire people to be more creative. Using their creativity, people can enrich the country through a more precious way.
The second aspect that makes me against smoking in public places is social. Not only smoking harms the smokers, but it is also bad for the other people and the nature. Smoking in public places can be harmful for the other people. Smoke can annoy people’s comfort. Smokes can disturb the enjoyable nature. Moreover, smoke is pollution for the nature. It destructs the clean and the beauty of the nature. The level of CO2 on the atmosphere is increasing; it causes global warming.
Talking about annoying other people, smoking is also harmful for people’s health, both the smokers and the non-smokers. It can be the strongest reason that I against smoking in public places. Many doctors said that smoking is bad for our lung. Many diseases are caused by cigarette. Respiration system is the one that is most influenced by smoke and all the substances that consisted in cigarette. Even many experts believe that smoking is more dangerous for the non-smokers rather than the smokers.
In short, I strongly against the activity of smoking in public places, that brings many disadvantages to people, country, and nature. It is important for the people to realise about the bad things that are caused by smoking in public places and stop smoking in public places. On the other hand, we need a very strict regulation against this unprofitable activity so that we can live more healthily and can safe our nature.
