When it comes to smoking, the negative impact on human health is usually mentioned. However, the tobacco industry devastates not only the human body but also the environment. If you think that the effect of cigarettes on the environment around us is small, you are mistaken. According to the World Health Organization, there are about 1.3 billion smokers in the world. Every day, smokers produce chemicals in the air and cigarette waste, which pollutes the environment. It should be borne in mind that a large number of tobacco fields are needed to supply cigarettes for all smokers, as well as many forests being cut down.
