Nearly 80% of the world's one billion smokers live in low-and middle-income countries.

50% of cancer deaths, 40% of all health-related problems, and a majority of cardio-vascular and lung disorders in INDIA are due to tobacco use.

5 reasons why people smoked

1.

1• People love to smoke tobacco. This could be due to the stimulant

received, the intoxication and the addictive property of nicotine

2• Smoking was in-style and fashionable at several periods in time.

Smoking can be termed and defined as "cool", etc.

3

• In the past many people believed that smoking could protect them from illness. This is in combination with the idea that smoking was at least not harmful.

4.• For no real reason, people imitate others, or in other words, “monkey

see, monkey do”. They start it for fun and get addicted to it

5

• Finally, a nation can become 'addicted' to the revenues produced by taxes placed upon tobacco products. The governments never did anything to educate people.

Cigarette smokecontains over 4,000

chemical compounds; 600 of which are known

to be poisonous, and upwards of 60 have been identified as

carcinogens.

Children are inspired by the parents

Children are innocent victims

About 6 trillion cigarette butts litter the earth every year

1.7 billion pounds of cigarette butts accumulate in lakes and

oceans and on beaches and the rest of the planet every year Cigarette butts are not only everywhere, but they are

toxic and non-biodegradable Cigarette butts ooze out chemicals such as cadmium, lead, and arsenic

into the marine environment within an hour of contact with water.

garden, in the park, on the sidewalk
