I found a lot of information from RSS and google alerts which will be helpful for my campaign. But the one i like the most was "Stop smoking to give your kids the chance to grow up healthy". because i know parents can do anything for their children and in this story Heather Griffith explains it very well that if you don't quit smoking your children can face asthma, allergies, pneumonia, and more diseases and now how this story is will help me in establishing my goal in my community?? Well in my community most of the smokers are around the age of 28 and are mostly married. So i will tell them that i know it is hard to quit but if you don't then you and your family will pay the price for it.

A Campaign Against Smoking And Other Drugs


Hello everybody, this is Kashan Faiz from Pakistan. As we all know nothing is perfect in the world except god. In every country there are problems some of them are not big but ignoring those problems is making them big. And i am going to share one of those problems below:  




Smoking and Drugs are slow poison which make you addict to them. you can't leave them at once. When you inhale cigarette smoke, your lungs are punished with tar and many gases, including carbon monoxide. Nicotine, found in tobacco, affects your central nervous system as a stimulant. like smoking, drugs also have some great effects on human body. When drugs get into the bloodstream they are carried to all parts of thebody and some reach the brain. The quicker the drug reaches the brain, the more intense the effects. and also when the heart pumps blood containing the drug to the brain where it will affect how people feel. 

Smoking and Death



Smoking causes death.


  • The adverse health effects from cigarette smoking account for more than 440,000 deaths, or nearly one of every five deaths, each year in the United States.2,3,4
  • More deaths are caused each year by tobacco use than by human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), illegal drug use, alcohol use, motor vehicle injuries, suicides, and murders combined.3,5
  • If nobody smoked, one of every three cancer deaths in the United States would not happen.2
  • Smoking causes an estimated 90% of all lung cancer deaths in men1,2 and 80% of all lung cancer deaths in women.1
  • An estimated 90% of all deaths from chronic obstructive lung disease are caused by smoking.1,2

Smoking and Increased Health Risks

Compared with nonsmokers, smoking is estimated to increase the risk of—
  • Coronary heart disease by 2 to 4 times,1,6
  • Stroke by 2 to 4 times,1,7
  • Men developing lung cancer by 23 times,1
  • Women developing lung cancer by 13 times,1 and
  • Dying from chronic obstructive lung diseases (such as chronic bronchitis and emphysema) by 12 to 13 times.1

Smoking and Cardiovascular Disease

  • Smoking causes coronary heart disease, the leading cause of death in the United States.1
  • Cigarette smoking causes reduced circulation by narrowing the blood vessels (arteries) and puts smokers at risk of developing peripheral vascular disease (i.e., obstruction of the large arteries in the arms and legs that can cause a range of problems from pain to tissue loss or gangrene).1,2,7
  • Smoking causes abdominal aortic aneurysm (i.e., a swelling or weakening of the main artery of the body—the aorta—where it runs through the abdomen).1




Smoking and Respiratory Disease

  • Smoking causes lung cancer.1,2,3
  • Smoking causes lung diseases (e.g., emphysema, bronchitis, chronic airway obstruction) by damaging the airways and alveoli (i.e., small air sacs) of the lungs.1,2,3

Smoking and Cancer

Smoking causes the following cancers:1,2 (in alphabetical order)
  • Acute myelitis leukemia
  • Bladder cancer
  • Cancer of the cervix
  • Cancer of the esophagus
  • Kidney cancer
  • Cancer of the larynx (voice box)
  • Lung cancer
  • Cancer of the oral cavity (mouth)
  • Pancreatic cancer
  • Cancer of the pharynx (throat)
  • Stomach cancer



Little drops of water, little grains of sand

 make the mighty ocean, and this pleasant land 



This is important to me because most of people of my community are addicted to smoking there family members tell them a lot of times they shouldn't smoke but they don't listen to them because they are not aware of the effects of smoking so I want to make them realize that how dangerous it is to smoke.  

I know i can't prevent every single person from smoking but if ti can prevent two people i will think i have won. because something is better than nothing, and if we won't try we can't stop this, so it is better to start from the lower level than moving slowly. 

I hope by reading all the above you might have got the idea that how important it is to stop smoking. we should care about each other not to let everybody be a victim of it. Believe me or not every year 1000's of people leave smoking you know why because they die.
