Much scientific research has been carried out in recent years with regard to passive smoking and its health effects. The results of the research has formed an overwhelming opinion that if you call as passive, environment, used or secondhand smoke smoking final results are as dangerous to your health (and the health of those around you) that directly on and a cigarette you.

Passive smoking is now directly linked as a cause of heart and lung disease, heart attacks, asthma, COPD, bronchitis and a plethora of related diseases, illnesses and conditions. It is believed that a non-smoker who works alongside those who smoke may have an increased risk or extending a lung disease, the risk is perhaps 30% more than non-smokers who work in a smoke free environment.

These results lead to national and local governments increasingly, and employers are pushing for a ban on smoking in enclosed spaces in the workplace.

The British government went as far as banning all smoking in all public areas of the summer of 2007, and in Britain, it is now forbidden to smoke in all public places including pubs, clubs, CAF of restaurants, all workplaces and even vehicles works.
