Everybody needs and has right in getting health because healthy is invaluable thing for his/her. However, some people do not care about their surrounding by doing unhealthy habit, such as smoking which causes air pollution. To protect non-smoking citizens from air pollution is needed antismoking law to create friendly environment. At least, antismoking law should include three things, such as right to health, reducing cigarette production, and smoke-free zones.
Right to health, as initial, should be included in antismoking law. People need fresh air in his/her respiration to live normally. Cigarette smoke contains more than 4,000 harmful chemicals, such as tar, arsenic, benzene, cadmium, formaldehyde, hydrogen cyanide, carbon monoxide, and other harmful chemicals. Tar that is a mixture of lots of chemicals can cause cancer. Arsenic can cause cancer as well as damaging the heart and its blood vessels. Hydrogen cyanide is a poisonous gas and carbon monoxide sticks to our red blood cells in place of oxygen. Thus, right to health should be included in antismoking law to protect people from the dangers of cigarette smoke.
As the next, reducing cigarette production should be done by government. It has to make rule in reducing this production as the aim to bring back fresh air. It can be done by raising taxes on cigarette production or promoting awareness not to smoke early, through health institutions, schools, or the family. This way could reduce cigarette production and protect non-smoking citizens.
Subsequently, government should make smoke-free zones rule. Public place should free from cigarette smoke and provide smoking room for smoker. It is not fair that non-smokers have to inhale smoke that has the potential to affect their health. The current health risks are faced by passive smokers, even with greater risks than active smokers. Smoke-free zones and providing smoking room is fair decision in separating smokers and non smokers. So, they will get their rights.
Overall, antismoking law has to be created as soon as possible to create friendly environment. Fair decision should be take for both smokers and non smokers to preserve their rights.
