Second-Hand smoking is an ongoing problem. Many years people have lost their loved ones because of the effects of smoking  . The death of second - hand smoking is catching up to the rate of how many people that have died from smoking, this is increasing every time. That is why I am here today to tell you that second - hand smoking is harmful too.

Who in this room knows what second - hand smoking is? The meaning and the purpose ? Well second-hand smoking is like an exchange, like smoke being passed on. When the smoker exhales out smoke it is inhaled by anyone around or near them and  that is Second - hand smoking.

Being a second hand smoker, has many negative effects to your body like, Heart diseases, Lung cancer, a stroke and nasal sinus cancer. These are some of the illnesses that can affect you as a second hand smoker.

Some people say second-hand smoking is nothing compared to smoking.   What do you think?  This is not true.  Well Second hand smoking is harmful too.  Children who are second hand smokers are more at risk. Because children have smaller lungs it is too delicate to fight any diseases. When a child inhales smoke, more than 7,00 toxic chemicals are inhaled as well. This is slowly hurting them from the inside and surely they will die at a very early age.

Some time ago I found out about a 9 year old boy who has died because of second- hand smoking.It had happened because his parents kept smoking in the house. As he kept inhaling the smoke that lead him to heart disease and  ended up losing his life. The parents have stop smoking now but it is too late.  So let’s work  together to help smokers to quit smoking before innocent people will be dying from second hand smoking.

You can see from all the reasons I have shared with you today why Second - Hand smoking. I still truly believe that we need to do something because second hand smoking is a real killer now.  If we work together we can make a difference.
