Cigarettes has long been known for being the cause of death and many illnesses. Therefore this is not of a surprise when many countries made smoking illegal in public places. There are many reasons for which I believe this rule needs to be mandatory in all countries, some of which will be described in this essay.
The first reason for which this restriction should be included in every country are the Health problems smoking cause. The health issues influence not only to the smoker, but also all of his surrounding. Research shows that passive smoking can be at times even more dangerous and deadlier, especially when it accures in closed public places, where the air is not being circulated and the smoke is being aggregated.
Secondly, as a government has an important role in public health and society’s education for healthier life style. Once the government forbids smoking in public places, it shows people that it is a bad habit. In addition, it reduces the influence on a non-smoking people simply by not allowing them to spend time in that kind of environment. For instance, it is much less fun for a youngster to have to leave his friends and go outside to smoke, rather that stay indoors and enjoy a cigarette together.
Finaly, all of the mentioned above, eventually impact dramatically on the reduction of costs spent on health preservation, caused by the increase in population illness.
In conclusion, to my opinion, those rules should be implemented in all countries, so that we all can have a better life and healthier environment.
