Hi mylot. Are you a smoker? Do you smoke a lot? If it does , have you give it up? AS we all know that it is harmful to our bbody health. Do you think we should make a no smoking environment which is good for our health?
It is reported that a majority of people smoke in the world. some still smoke heavily. In order to make a more suitable environment,some organizations have come to appeal people not to smoke.
So, mylot,do you think we should do something to our living environment,at least not to smoke? Thank you for your join in.

There are many things people shouldn't do because it's unhealthy but nonetheless they do it because they like it. I think a non smoking environment would be nice though. There are many campaigns out there that deter people from smoking but in the end it really is up to the person to make that decision or not.

I'm pretty happy with my country's arrangement. There are certain designated places for smoking and places which aren't allowed, will be imposed a fine. I think this is being fair to non-smokers and at the same time, it gives a limited space for smokers and in the long run, some might tend to quit after all. Smart move, and I'm all for it.

Hi,mlong,there are 2 ways-One is avoiding smoking by ourselves voluntarily..Second one is when we don't want to stop smoking,especially in public places..Govt. should also arrange other facilities[special rooms for smokers in highly traffic area with public] to avoid Passive Smoking.
Have a nice time.

I smoke. I choose to smoke. I am aware of the health risks (which are, in my opinion, feverishly overstated), and I make an informed choice.
I resent being restricted in my choice by the state, or by an individual - I think it quite absurd, and feel as though smokers are picked on as an easy target.
The health consequences of "being a big old fat b*stard" are altogether far more severe, yet nothing is done - no punitive tax on tubs of lard - whilst it now costs almost £6 for a pack of smokes, mostly tax.
I think the government has a responsibility to inform the public - so that they are aware of the risks - but not to effectively make a choice on their behalf. This is pure tyranny.

As we all know that it is harmful to our body health,why do not we stop smoking,which can contribute a lot to our health. I think everyone want to build a healthy body ,in other words, people will live a longer life.What's they still can enjoy the life to the fulest. Happy mylot.

I think it is very good to do like the place you are living now. Though I have been there, I think there must have a very clean air which will make feel very comfortable. So just enjoy your life and happy mylot.

I think we should do that little we know even if its just a small smoke but there are many smokers. this adds up to global warming if we still love to live we should stop smoking to prolong earth.
