Smoking is bad for health (Сочинения ЕГЭ английский язык)

I am 15 years old and I have never smoked, I have not even tried it. It always surprises me that, despite the obvious disadvantages of smoking, millions of people on this planet are affected by this habit.

The most important harm from smoking is, of course, harm to human health. According to statistics, a person who smokes lives, on average, 10 years less than a non-smoker. I believe that only because of this statistics, you need to stop smoking or not to start at all.

In addition to a clear reason, such as a health threat, smoking has many other negative sides. Such as, bad breath, yellow teeth and fingers, smoke smell in the apartment, the torture of the inability to smoke in many places, such as a long flight on an airplane, etc.

Also, we should not forget that cigarettes are becoming more expensive every year, and more and more money is being spent from a family or personal budget.

In all countries of the world, there is now a fight against smoking.

In general, there are 4 directions. First, the cost of cigarettes increases, and secondly, the number of points and sales decreases and the packs of cigarettes are removed from the storefronts; thirdly, the beautiful design of the packets themselves is destroyed - they contain terrible pictures of the dangers of smoking, and each year their size grows . And last but not least, it's a ban on cigarette advertising. That is, everything is done to make smoking not fashionable and expensive.

Dad told me that when he was a teenager, his company smoked almost everything, both guys and girls. I'm glad that now the situation has seriously changed, for example, in my company no one smokes at all. Maybe when we get older, one of us will smoke, but anyway, most of my friends now understand that it's stupid to smoke.
