Aside from stinking up the immediate atmosphere,  it has the same effect on the environment as any other agricultural and manufacturing industry.

Answer 3

It's a form of pollution-- just as bad as burning fossil fuels.

It's also harmful to those around you. Have you ever heard of people getting lung cancer from second-hand smoke? It happens =[ Cigarette butts thrown on the ground can also be considered littering, I'm sure.

My dad and my grandfather both used to smoke, but they quit before I was born. I myself am horribly sensitive to smoke. If I catch even the scent of cigarette smoke, I will begin to cough uncontrollably. It is the worst feeling, and I really wish people would keep that sort of thing away from other people, instead of smoking in crowded parking lots and at store fronts.

I'm sure there are a lot of people who have the same sentiment.
