In most parts of the world, smoking is a physically unattractive habit. While people are getting their nicotine dose, they are placing a lit stick of tobacco in their mouth and breathing smoke into their lungs, all the while pulling thousands of harmful chemicals into their body. Upon exhalation, several of those chemicals are still present and present somewhat of a health hazard to those around that would otherwise be breathing cleaner air. Even if you don’t account for the unhealthy aspects of smoking, there’s still the fact that tar and other chemicals found in tobacco cigarettes stain the smokers teeth and fingers, cause horrible breath, “smoker’s cough”, and overall saturates the environment with a foul smell that lingers for days and is often difficult to extinguish.
Tobacco smoke is full of harmful chemicals: harmful to the smoker as well as the passerby. Many of those chemicals are known carcinogens. By the day, more and more people are diagnosed with cancer that can be linked directly to their tobacco habit. Some people already have respiratory trouble which is further impeded by inhaling secondhand tobacco smoke. With all of these obvious cons, it just doesn’t make sense why people wouldn’t become more thoughtful and start seeking ways outside of tobacco to get the nicotine they crave.
Seeing as how our society is becoming more and more dependent on technology, it makes sense that the newest increasingly popular nicotine product on the market is electronic. E-cigarettes are alternatives for people who smoke but want to cut out a lot of the harmful side effects. E-cigarettes basically provide the user with an experience that is incredibly similar to smoking tobacco cigarettes without a lot of negative aspects. E-cigarettes are used in a way that is almost identical to the normal method of smoking, but the user isn’t required to light up, nor does the user force secondhand smoke hazards on people around them.
You may be thinking, “How is this possible?”. E-cigarettes, instead of using tobacco, have an e-liquid that is responsible for providing the nicotine that users crave. An atomizer is activated as the user takes a puff. The atomizer heats up the liquid, turning it into a vapor, which is inhaled, minus the 4000 or so chemicals that can be found in normal cigarette smoke. While this is beneficial for smokers, it’s also a plus for non smokers because the vapor is pretty much odorless and doesn’t cause clothes and skin to retain the odor of secondhand smoke.
It’s fairly obvious why more and more people are switching to e-cigarettes. While this shouldn’t be a reason for people to start using nicotine, it should raise concern for non smokers in the sense that it presents an opportunity for them to educate their friends about an alternative to smoking.
