Dreams Gone Up In Smoke

Imagine this: a 1,200 degree flame burning just one inch from your lips, gray-black ash and fumes swirling inside your nose, healthy pink cells dying by the millions within your chest, toxic waste flooding into your bloodstream.

This is what people do for fun?

Second only to alcohol, the other leading killer is tobacco. By the time they are 16 years old, three out of four teens have tried cigarettes, and half of them are addicted. What’s more, teenage girls smoke more today than ever before!

Most people start their tobacco addiction during their teenage years. In fact, the chances are almost zero that a person will start smoking after they graduate from high school. The tobacco companies know this very well. That’s why their ads are targeted toward you! Tobacco companies realize that if they can succeed in getting you hooked now, they’ve probably got you for life. Tobacco executives also acknowledge that if you resist them now, they will never capture you at all.

It’s easy to identify people who smoke. The first sign is their unmistakable odor. If you get close enough, it’s not hard to distinguish the smell of a smoker. Even if they have just brushed their teeth and washed their outfits, the scent of tobacco rarely comes out of their breath, hair, and clothing.
