Don't Smoke!!!

Smoking is responsible for lots diseases like cancer, long-term (chronic) respiratory diseases, and heart disease and also premature death.  Over 4500 people in new zealand.  People die because of smoking each year and it is the leading cause of preventable deaths.  The World Health Organisation says that around 9% of deaths worldwide are caused by smoking. The chemicals in the tobacco can cause cancer like heart disease or lung cancer.

Teenagers smoke because every one is doing it or just to be cool. This is a really bad thing to do when you're young because your body isn't fully developed. Once you start it’s really hard to stop. Smoking can really affect your health or even your life when you get older.

The government only allows tobacco because it get % out of every packet of smokes that are purchased.  The reason why is to pay for the healthcare that will be needed by smokers when they get sick.


Teenage smoking isn't right. It can harm your health when you're older.  SO DON’T SMOKE!!!!
