NO SMOKING
Smoking causes lung cancers Lung cancer is the number one cancer among men Ninety percent of the people who get lung cancer die Smokers have twice as much heart disease Smoking gives people breathing problems It harms the stomach Smoking causes one million early deaths in the world every year
Throughout the world, women live longer than men Why? Because men smoke more Non-smoking men live just as long as women Smokers pollute the air They breathe out
100 times as much pollution as non-smokers They breathe it out on their children and on their wives or husbands Children whose parents smoke have more breathing and lung problems than other children Among non-smoking women married to smokers, there are twice as many deaths from lung cancer as there are among women married to
non-smokers Men have the right to kill themselves by smoking if they want to They do not have the right to kill their wives and their children by smoking Smokers are absent from work more Factory and business lose millions of dollars every year because of smokers Smokers have higher medical bill All of these facts from research show that smoking is bad Young people start smoking because everyone else is doing this They feel grown up and independent It helps them relax Then it becomes bad habit
It is very difficult to stop smoking , but the chance of getting lung cancer decreases only one year after you stop After ten years , the chance is almost the same as for non-smokers It is possible to quite smoking Thirty million people in the United States have quite because they believe the research
