Persuasive Essay On Tobacco Free

The biggest new trend here at college campuses across the country is to become tobacco free. The reason behind this is that too many people become annoyed and sick from tobacco smoke that is not from there own doing. Tobacco is the number one killer year after year in our socitey. Enough people die every year to fill up an entire National Football Leauge Stadium, which hold around 400,000 people. Now isnt that crazy. A stop needs to be put to all of these deaths and the number one way to start this trend is to enforce tobacco free rules at extremely populated places, college campuses for example.

Is smoking a cigarette like aiming a smoking gun to your head? Absolutely, yes! The photo above, has a very powerful message to be shared with people all over the world. The creator of the picture above is, The American Cancer Society. This is an organization that is trying to heighten awareness of the dangers of smoking, the most threatening danger being, cancer. They also promote relays which help raise money for ads and research. The money raised helps to inform people of the dangers smoking and what the negative outcomes of such a habit. This society also helps with finding treatment options. They are helping people cope with the side effects of various cancers or to advise on health insurance. A certain population of people, particularly young people, see smoking as a cool or hip idea to fit in. The goal of this visual argument is to inform people who smoke cigarettes that they should just hold a gun to their heads. The American people should be against nonsmoking because of the feelings you get when smoking, the chemicals that are involved, and how the cigarette will kill like a loaded gun.

On August 15th, 2015 Southern Connecticut State University became a Tobacco-free campus. By being tobacco-free, Southern promised that all forms of smoking and tobacco use were “prohibited in all facilities and outdoor areas of campus, without exception.” This should be a major triumph, and great leap forward, for the university’s on-going goal to become as eco-friendly as possible. However, there has not been any noticeable enforcement of this policy, even though it was made very clear that “those who violate the policy may be subject to disciplinary action or may be in violation of state law.” Therefore, although this policy is respectable, it is undoubtedly failing due to it not being enforced on campus.

Tobacco products are ever so threatening in the United States, where according to U.S. Food and Drug administration 25% of the deaths in men and women age 35 to 69 are caused from smoking related diseases (U.S. Food and Drug Administration, 2017). This number was even higher among substance abusers and people with mental health problems (Bandiera, Anteneh, Le, Delucchi, & Guydish, 2015, p.1). Even if someone does not die from smoking cigarettes they are at increased risk of contracting an otherwise preventable disease. Due to an exponentially growing amount of people becoming affected with diseases related to tobacco use, the United States government were forced to take action to try and stop the progression of these horrible diseases. These actions have come to no avail, since people who are addicted to cigarettes are not going to stop buying them just because of a price increase. Banning the production and distribution of tobacco products will contribute to a

For me growing up in central Illinois, tobacco was as much a part of life as were the cornfields we were trapped in by. My father for as long as I can remember chewed tobacco, so naturally I followed suit. Once I started drinking (and particularly in the Navy) everyone was smoking, so yet again naturally I followed along. Like a helpless little sheep I followed the crowd. It does not take much to persuade young adults that something is not only not bad for them, but they will look like a total and full fledged badass in the process. Tobacco for example, and more specifically cigarettes. Winston in their ad in an issue of “Field and Stream Magazine” published in September of 2017 is no exception.

We all consist of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. Although this statement definitely falls short if we illegalize tobacco. If we all can pursue happiness, then tobacco users should be capable of living their life by the way they choose.

What your eyes see is an individual lighting money (US currency) as if it was a cigarette. To be exact on what bill is being used, the person is using a one-dollar bill that has George Washington face printed on it. The picture symbolize that we are spending money to purchase these horrid items that is causing major damage to our body and society. The pitch-black background conveys a sense of fear and mystery. There is a green lighter being used to burn the money. The fire from the lighter is a beaming yellow mix with light orange.

Have you ever been sitting at the bar or walking down the street and there is some wanker failing to blow vapour rings in your face? You start to wonder, why did this never happen when everyone smoked cigarettes.

"Giving up smoking is the easiest thing in the world. I know because I have done it thousands of times," said Samuel Clemens, better known by his pen name Mark Twain. Mark Twain spoke these words nearly 150 years ago. Unfortunately for Mark Twain, there weren't very many options available back then when it came to quitting tobacco. This quote, humorous in some sense, unfortunately, describes the lives of many smokers today. Luckily for smokers today, there are many options available to help smokers quit smoking with the most popular option becoming the use of vaporizers. Vaporizers and e-cigarettes are devices containing a nicotine-based liquid that is vaporized and inhaled. They are used to simulate the experience of smoking tobacco. Vaporizers and e-cigarettes are a better alternative to smoking tobacco because vaping is healthier than smoking tobacco, cleaner for the environment, and helps people quit using tobacco despite many people who argue that vaping is a public health concern, doesn't end nicotine addiction, and is a danger to minors because more kids and teenagers are becoming addicted to nicotine via vapor products due to vapor companies targeting them.

Most people in society today know about tobacco and its negative effects on the human body, yet tobacco is still used and accepted in pop culture. Big name tobacco companies are causing health problems for smokers and even non-smokers. Those same companies are also targeting the youth to get them hooked on the drug nicotine found in tobacco. I believe that tobacco has very little to benefit from and should be outlawed in the United States due to health issues it brings, addictiveness, and the targeting of youth who is not able to purchase tobacco legally.

Her lungs blackened. Her body still. Her chest that once rose with each steady breath lay leveled motionless. Her heart stopped. The fate of the inevitable thing called death was determined by that single cigarette she decided to slip in between her lips which became an unrelenting need. Cigarette smoking has become the number one cause of preventable diseases and deaths in the United States. While many are aware of that fact, more than 45 million Americans still participate in the activity of smoking. Approximately 480,000 deaths occur annually as an aftermath from smoking—meaning 1 in every 5 deaths (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention).

Did you know that 20% of adult’s smoke cigarettes in the United States and every year more than 480,000 people die from tobacco use and exposure to secondhand smoke, making it the leading cause of preventable death in this country? (CDC, 2017) How many of those people do you think have children? Second-hand smoke is just as dangerous as lighting up according to the Center for Disease Control and Prevention. It causes numerous health problems in infants and children, including more frequent and severe asthma attacks, respiratory infections, ear infections, and sudden infant death syndrome. (CDC, 2017) Anti-smoking advertisements began in 1998 as part of a 206-billion-dollar settlement. Major tobacco companies, including Philip Morris USA, R. J. Reynolds, Brown & Williamson, and Lorillard, were to pay for anti-smoking ads due to a lawsuit from 46 states. The states filed a lawsuit against the major tobacco companies for Medicaid and costs incurred while treating the sick and dying cigarette smokers. (Public Health Law Center, 2015) In 2012, the federal government took on an effort to attack the nation’s tobacco addiction with a series of advertisements highlighting the grisly toll of smoking. (Harris, 2017) You have probably noticed one of these ads. In one TV ad, a woman who has a hole in her neck and barely any hair on her head after suffering head and neck cancer. (Harris, 2017)
