Talking about the health risks of smoking, how work places would become greater, and how banning smoking will help smokers quit, Mark Clayson declares his point of view and brings an open concept for the future. To begin, Dr. Clayson describes how the health of non-smokers is at risk when there is smoking moving in and out of their lungs. He states how it is unfair that someone who chooses not to smoke can still be in danger of a smoking related illness, and many non-smokers can relate to feeling uncomfortable and endangered around a smoky room. He states, for adults, cancer, lung disease, and asthma are the three most common illnesses. Additionally, asthma and middle ear infection are the most common harms done to children when exposed to second hand smoke.
Kids Health website states, “Over the long term, smoking leads people to develop health problems like heart disease, stroke, emphysema (breakdown of lung tissue), and many types of cancer.” (“Smoking”). Second, cigarettes also cause numerous cosmetic problems such as; bad breath, yellow teeth, and bad skin. “Nicotine and the other toxins in cigarettes, cigars, and pipes can affect a person's body quickly.” (“Smoking”). Not only does the first hand smoke of a cigarette affect the smoker, the second hand smoke can harm people near smokers. The chemicals in cigarettes stay in the exhaled smoke, making second hand smoke dangerous to inhale.

Because once you get to the filter, there is no tobacco left to smoke, and the people are being shown as the tobacco in this advertisement. So once they have smoked until they can’t anymore, they are dead. Smoking is leaving people helpless, and this advertisement is showing that they have no way of escaping the addiction. While not only showing that smoking leaves you trapped, this image also portrays a vision of what many people will say might look like hell. When most; who believe in it, think of hell, you think of fire, flames and destruction.

Also, it can be very addicting and most adolescents who have been exposed to marijuana at a young age have parents who also smoke it. An adolescent’s home environment and friends can be a big contributor on why they start abusing this harmful drug. Though other factors also contribute to whether or not someone will become addicted to other drugs after using marijuana, including biological, social and environmental factors, it stands confirmed that marijuana use often serves as a gateway to other drugs of addiction. Another environmental factor is because the person who sells the marijuana to them more than likely sells or does other drugs.
