Smoking cigarettes cause a number of health problems, including lung cancer. What is more harmful is the open advertisement of this product. Children and teenagers get inspired and buy cigarettes to look ‘cool’.
To solve this problem, cigarette ads must be banned. The tax on a packet of cigarettes should be increased to discourage its sale. In 80 percent of the cases, the reason for lung cancer is smoking. It is said that health is wealth. Therefore, people should avoid smoking cigarettes.
