I am convinced that it is impossible to ban smoking despite its tangible harm to humans and the environment. Our society is not ready to give it up, because the majority believes that smoking can quickly relieve stress and the person smoking a cigarette looks stylish and cool. In addition, it is very difficult to leave this habit in the past for a person who has already smoked for several years. All attempts by the government to stop the spread of this distress – increasing the price of cigarettes, banning smoking in public places – lead to an increase in the share of illegal trade in this market. The reasons for this are people's mentality, but I believe that humanity will realize how beautiful the sky can be without gray smoke and will begin to take care of the health of the nation. It's everyone's personal choice: to smoke or not to smoke. The solution is to resort to applied methods.
