Scott Argument writing Introduction: Tobacco is one of the most widely-used recreational drugs; mainly in the form of cigarettes, but also in cigars and pipes, in combination with cannabis and marijuana in ‘joints’. Over a billion adults smoke tobacco legally every day. This is an environmental issue. Tobacco causes at least 400,000 deaths every year. People should know that tobacco and other smokes damages them and gives a 22 times more risk for lung cancer than non-smokers. Key questions for this are: Why do some people ignore the health risk signs? Do people know their being damaged?  Pros:  People should stop smoking tobacco for various reasons  1. It damages our heart and gives a very high risk of cancer.  2. Smoking is also damaging and destroying our environment.  3. This kills about 400,000 people each year.  4. We are poisoning ourselves with dangerous chemicals for example: petrol and lipstick are being consumed in these smokes.  5. This is deadly. So there are reasons why we should ban smoking. About 90% smokers start below the age of 18, which should not be happening. We die early of heart disease if we smoke. People should know what they’re doing to themselves, but they don’t really. They could say that smoking is something to use to fit in with other smokers, but it’s not. Really, they’re just poisoning themselves with the rest. Three questions like these could be asked: Why were tobacco, cannabis and marijuana made? Why do people even smoke these? Is there a reason to smoke? There are answers to these but I’m not answering. Conclusion:   In conclusion, smokes should be banned or raised to a very high price. The government should be doing more about it. They’re doing something, but not enough. We need to ban smoking.
