Smoking ban causes eco problems
You would have thought that by imposing a smoking ban in public places in the UK that this would mean that there would be a cleaner society, but however this is not the fact, because the smokers are still smoking, they have just moved outside.
So consider this, there is still the smoke, the litter from cigarette ends, which also pollute water as they often end up in the road and then down the drains and finally most bars provide patio heaters outside which produce 282,000 tons of Co2 per year, which is 260,000 tons more than before the ban.
So while banning smoking may be ok for bars etc, it may not be good for the environment.
