The image of nine cigarettes lined along a surface, where the first cigarette from left to right is brand new, straight out the box. The second one has been struck, known by the decrease in size and ash that comes from being burned. From there the other seven are remaining to be charred and shorten from smoking. Every cigarette has an ending as well, where the white paper touches the orange, separated by a thin gold strip. But this author chooses to show meaning by going beyond that gold strip on the eighth cigarette. The last has been entirely

On the other hand the audience of non-smokers would probably be more influenced not to smoke, while also mimicking the interpretations of others not to smoke and how it moves them. Some non-smokers have a strong bias against smoking from the death of a relative that smoked or a relative or friend that died from smoking, not because they were a smoker, but being around someone that smoked. All audience of every kind have the appeal that smoking will kill you, but still choose to smoke, but this image tries to convey them not to and the risk of it.
The demonstration of logos we recognize in the image are cigarettes, where we think of them as causing cancers and death. Knowing worldwide that the toxic chemicals and addiction that can kill us, viewed in the image, everyone logically understands it as death. Its clarification of ethos comes from the background of the author, in what effect does he have on the image to make us want to believe in the knowledge he attempts to give
Every year in Australia, according to Australia’s national Smoking Quit-line 15,000 people die from smoking. This number included, mothers, brothers, sisters, fathers, husbands and wives, which leaves a lot of irreplaceable vacancies in families across Australia. These losses could have all been avoided if smoking was banned in Australia. Which us to my point; I believe that smoking should be made illegal across the whole of Australia. Not only does smoking have a detrimental impact on our already fragile environment but the overall cost of cigarettes also has a negative impact on households. Smoking also tears apart our priceless families, as the impact of this nasty habit can be fatal.
The campaign Truth focuses on giving facts, truths and statistics to its viewers to become educated on the topic of tobacco. Underneath the large text from above, the second fact states that “90% of them started as teen smokers.” Many adults that have become addicted to smoking cigarettes began the habit as teens. There are many people that believe smokers are not good people and that they are going to be ill. That is what the artist of this picture is portraying. Truth’s most recent campaign, ‘Finish It’, has a strong theme: “be the generation that ends smoking for good.” This has been presented and shown through social media and popular television shows. Through the exposure of the deathly, and eye opening facts through social media, it has been a great impact to teenagers. On Truth’s website they state that “We’re not here to criticize your choices, or tell you not to smoke. We’re here to arm everyone—smokers and nonsmokers—the the tools to make it change” (thetruth.com). Many other anti—smoking campaigns shame and make smokers feel guilty but Truth is mainly about exposing the facts and making people more knowledgeable about tobacco.
Eleven years down the road that kid is either in college or working, and is offered a cigarette. His mother had always told him that smoking was bad for a person’s health but she also told him that the tooth fairy was real. The first thing that will run through his mind is that advertisement he saw at the bus stop one day that had stuck with him all these years. I can almost guarantee that he will turn the cigarette down. He most likely will flash back to the moment when he saw the cigarette with the gun as the shadow, and want nothing to do with smoking. Advertisements, especially one as dramatic as this can really turn a person on or off of something permanently. In the big picture, this could help change the thought that smoking is a social norm and “cool”, but rather a habit that only makes the sand run faster through the hour glass of life. Even if it only helped a handful of people, isn’t that enough to call it a success? Because when those people grow up and tell their children and grandchildren what the effects of smoking are, it will be passed from generation to generation. This could result in a rapid decline of smokers and a more healthy world we live
Over the last 50 years, smoking and the public image of smoking has changed dramatically. Americans have learned the harmful effects of smoking and have put a heavy disdain on the use of it. The number of new smokers has drastically dropped over the years and many that had previously smoked have stopped. Some have turned to electronic cigarettes as a safer way to intake nicotine. Over the years, smoking advertisements have changed drastically. Nowadays, tobacco advertisements are virtually non-existent in our society, but when they were abundant they depicted smoking as a cool and sophisticated activity. Today, smoking advertisements are shown by electronic cigarette companies. These companies emphasize the healthier lifestyle these products

Even though smoking cigarettes can lead to death and consider very bad for someone’s health, people all over the world do it every day. No matter how many cautions cigarette companies place on cigarettes packs, people still smoke. There have been a lot of debate about the consequences of smoking cigarettes, as well as many studies have been done, showing the awful results of smoking on people’s physical condition. Despite all the consequences that smoking cigarettes can create on one’s health, people cannot seem to be able to stay away from them. At every gas station, almost everywhere people go, many advertisements try to influence people to smoke and make smoking looks cool.

Smoking can damage nearly every organ of the body and also causes nearly one of every five deaths in the United States each year.
Smoking cigarettes is a detrimental practice not only to the smoker, but also to everyone around the smoker. According to an article from the American Lung Association, “Health Effects” (n.d.), “Smoking is the leading cause of preventable death in the U.S., causing over 438,000 deaths per year”. The umbrella term for tobacco use includes the use of cigarettes, cigars, e-cigs and chewing tobacco. While tobacco causes adverse health consequences, it also has been a unifying factor for change in public health. While the tobacco industries targets specific populations, public health specifically targets smokers, possible smokers, and the public to influence cessation, policies and education.
A smoker knows the effects of smoking as well as the obvious outcome. Some smoke for the image of smoking and most continue to smoke due to the affects of nicotine. Everyone seems to have an opinion on smoking regardless if they do or don't. Recent television commercials that are against smoking has impacted a lot of the population's opinion on smoking. Recent laws in cities around the country are now banning smoking in a lot of public places.
Many actions have been taken on vaping and cigarettes, such as only allowing people over or at the age of eighteen to buy the product and putting warning labels on products. The serious issue is there needs to be action applied to the fact that these products can kill a human being. There is a wide variety of policies trying to be passed for vaping and cigarettes. A vaping regulation is trying to pass making all vape companies to carry products similar to products back when vaping firs started. This could cause the vaping market crash, making people lose money, and most important jobs. Some actions should be taken on tobacco products because of the risk of getting cancer in it is high.
Cigarettes are one of the most common killers known to mankind. Cigarettes kill about 6 million people every year, and that number isn’t going to go down in less we do something about it. Smoking in the twentieth century killed only 100 million people, whereas a billion could die in our century. There are several more reasons why we should ban cigarettes, and I am going list them.
However, every day there are kids, not old enough to drive, take a puff from their first cigarette and become unaware of toxins that are consuming their bodies. For young smokers, they want to fit in with their peers and it gives them a false sense of autonomy. They are fascinated by smoking and think it looks cool. Each day, an estimated 2,100 youth and young adults who have been occasional smokers become daily cigarette smokers(CDC). Smoking sneaks up on them, every day you smoke more than before; that’s because of nicotine. Nicotine is a highly addictive substance. It ends up burying itself in the consumer’s body and mentally the sensation gets you addicted. While some people might argue, smoking helps to cope with depression and stress; it kills you overtime. Physical withdrawal. On average smoking cigarettes, takes 10 years from your life away. Walt Disney, George Harrison and Steve McQueen all died from lung cancer.

Both of the drugs are legal in United States but that doesn’t a necessary mean that tobacco and alcohol is better for health.

Smoking is one of the dangerous habits that people perform in their lives. This habit affects the health and causes several diseases, such as lung cancer, cardiovascular disease, and pulmonary disease (Institute of Medicine, 2012). In the family I visited, the father is a smoker. He strongly approves with the idea of smoking while the mother strongly disapproves the idea of smoking. Both of them know that smoking is harmful to the smoker, but the father does not know that smoking is harmful for other people who are called: second hand smokers. In addition, the father was at the age of 15 when he started smoking cigarettes. There is more than one reason that pushed the father to start smoking when he was a teenager. One of these reasons is copying the behavior of his father. He believes it would be difficult for him to give up smoking. I agree that quit of smoking is difficult since cigarettes contain nicotine, which is more addictive than heroin and also smoking becomes part of his daily routine (Giovanni, 2012).
Smoking is a bridge to death. The more you smoke, the closer you get to your grave. Smoking has really been a problem to adults, even teenagers. It also plays a big role on a lot of deaths. A lot of teens do it because it may seem cool at first, but there will always be a big consequence they will face that they will regret for the rest of their lives. For this reason, many companies have raised anti-smoking awareness, such as the Alghanim Industries Medical Service in concern for people to stop smoking. The advertisement by the Alghanim Industries called “Dead Body” was published to create awareness among smokers. The “Dead Body” shows the bottom half of a body covered in white sheets and the top part is a cigarette butt. This anti-smoking advertisement is successful because it straight to the point and uses all three rhetorical appeals: logos (logic), ethos (credibility), and pathos (emotion).
