Different Perspectives• "I think they should ban smoking altogether," said Greg
Edwards, a 24-year-old single parent, of Parnell. "Smoking's bad for everything. Kids watch us smoking. Kids start at school [because they think] it's cool. If there's no smokes to be cool, it would be over. As simple as that."
• Sabrina Tupu, 18, of Onehunga, said of a street-smoking ban: "I think it's fair [but only] if there's designated spots for smokers to smoke because smokers do need a smoke. It is an addiction. If someone's on a lunch break and there's nowhere to smoke it would be hard for them; they don't want to go home for a smoke and come back to work."

The impact on the environment
There are few environmental issues, which every smoker should be
aware of. Smoking affects your environment greatly.
How Smoking Causes Air Pollution?
It is quite evident that smoking causes air pollution and to some extent
also pollutes the ground. Approximately 4000 chemicals are present in
cigarettes, which are breathed out and released in the atmosphere. Out
of the total North American population 30% of them are smokers and
the percentage of the smoking population in developing countries is
much higher. This indicates that an enormous quantity of pollution is
being released in the atmosphere every day.

How Smoking Causes Land and Water Pollution?
Pollution caused due to smoking is not confined only to the air or body
but to some extent it is also responsible in polluting the land and the
water. Every day millions of cigarette butts are left on the ground.
Maximum of the cigarette butts finally end up in lakes and rivers. By
mistake fishes and other water animals eat these butts resulting in death
of these water bodies. The remaining butts left on the ground will
approximately take 25-26 years to decompose. The various additives and
chemicals are leached into the soil, polluting the soil as well as plants.
During dry seasons cigarette butts can even cause major fire, which is
even harmful for the environment.

How Cigarette Production Affects Environment?
In an hour cigarette-manufacturing unit
requires almost 4 miles of paper for rolling
and packaging of the cigarettes. Just to
produce 300 cigarettes one tree is being
wasted. Energy and water is also being
wasted for the production of the cigarettes as well as the chemical
wastes from the manufacturing unit is also dumped into the soil. Hence
it is clear the cigarettes are in total adding huge strain on the body and
environment.

The impact on business
ECONOMIC IMPACT
Businesses which consider adopting smoke-free policies, particularly
hospitality industry businesses such as restaurants and bars, are
concerned about the economic impact of such policies on their
businesses. Likewise, when communities or states propose adopting
smoke-free ordinances or regulations, business owners, policymakers
and the public are concerned about the possible economic effects of such
policies. While the tobacco industry has for years stated that smoke-free
policies will reduce customer patronage of smoke-free businesses, there
are no credible, scientific studies that support these claims.

COSTS TO EMPLOYERS
Allowing smoking in the workplace has a
number of hidden - and not so hidden - costs to
the employer associated with it. Among these
costs are: higher medical insurance premiums;
more worker's compensation claims; lost
worker time and productivity due to smoking breaks; absenteeism due to
tobacco-related illnesses; smoking-related fires; etc. Further, there are
many legal liability issues for employers which are directly related to
smoking in the workplace. Many of these costs - and liability issues - can
be avoided or mitigated by the adoption of smoke-free policies.
