Have you ever been faced with this line? "It’s cool to smoke!"?  

Tobacco comes from a plant called Nicotiana tabacum.

Every ten seconds someone dies from smoking or tobacco use.  That is six people per minute and 360 people per hour.

 If you smoke you can die 20 to 25 years earlier then people who have never smoked. Every cigarette is 5 minutes less time that you have to live. Most people started smoking before they are 18. 

If you started smoking when you were 14 and smoked about a pack a week for 2 years and then you went to two packs a week until your 20, then you have just shorted your life by 173.3 hours or more!  

You can start to develop problems such as clogged arteries, lung diseases, or even death. The most common of these days is death, with nearly 10,000 smokers per day dying. You don’t always die though, but if you do live, there is practically NO chance of you living a healthy life.

THINK ABOUT IT. . . IS IT REALLY WORTH IT?
