Argument essay about smoking

Smoking is a common observable fact that can cause many serious diseases. There is many people smoking, many of them are working in very busy jobs like a banks. Although it is harmful, but they said that help some people to relax. I will start with the helpful points.

First of all, smoking can help smokers to relax from the stressful daily works, because it increase the nicotine in the blood so it keep the person fell relax. Some people think it makes them feel good when they are nervous. Moreover, people have the right to smoke as long as they smoke away from people and public places. Next, many poor people in most poor countries depend mainly on tobacco farms to survive.
Now the unhelpful side of smoking. First smoking is a major cause of lung cancer and heart disease as well as many other bad diseases. Next, smoking near people in public places like shopping malls, coffee shops and at the office is not only harming you, it’s also harming other people around you.

In conclusion, I’d like to say that I can value the lack of restrictions of smokers, but I believe they should think about it twice as it is harmful for them and for others.

Hurricanes & Tornadoes

Two meaning of disaster or destroyer hurricanes & tornadoes, it’s the most natural destroyer thing both are same but with small differences and as it show in the table the similarities and the differences.

Firstly the minimum speed of hurricane 74 mph, whereas that tornado is 40 mph. Also the maximum speed of tornado its reach almost 250-300 mph but on the other hand the hurricane its reach 155-200 mph. Even The hurricane is classified on the Saffir-Simpson C1-5 scale, while the tornado is measured on the Fujita F0-F5 scale. While a tornado usually lasts from a few minutes to a few hours, a hurricane can last up to a week. A hurricane can be predicted 2 to 3 days in move forward for a wide area and 6 to 10 hours beforehand for a locality, but a tornado can be predicted only minutes before it hits. Hurricanes start over warm oceans but tornadoes usually originate over land.

In concise, tornadoes are less humdrum, last for a shorter period of time and can reach much higher wind speeds.
