Smoking tobacco has been around a lot longer than most people think, beginning somewhere in the area of 5000 BC. It made its way to the old World in the 1500s and although it was sharply criticized, became popular. In the early 1920s, German scientists identified a link between smoking tobacco and lung cancer but the anti-smoking campaign that began there but that sentiment wouldn’t begin to be shared worldwide until the 1950s. It wasn’t until the 1980’s, with scientific evidence continuing to pile up, that the political world really started to take note and spoke for the first time about the evils of tobacco. You see, knowing to smoke was hardest as well as most miserable task that you have undertook in young life! And smoking was something, which you need to learn to do and you did not just pick up the cigarette as well as start smoking. Also, it took some time with persistence as well as enduing good misery to learn to start smoking. There were cases much earlier of political leaders trying to put an end to tobacco use. One of the harshest examples of this came in 1634 when the Patriarch of Moscow sentenced any man or woman who broke his ban on the sale of tobacco to be whipped viciously until the skin came off their backs and ordered their nostrils slit. In 1604, James I of England took a less horrific approach and imposed a four thousand percent tax increase on tobacco. It was a resounding flop. By that time, London had somewhere in the area of seven thousand tobacco sellers. In case you are the smoker who has already tried to stop & couldn't, and you know how much hard it is just quitting. In case you are not the smoker however have loved ones who are doing, believe me, it is very hard to quit smoking. You learn to suppress the body's normal protective action to hot, and polluted smoke that is entering your lungs. The lungs designed for cleaning air only and you learn to control the body with your whole mind! By the middle of the 1600s, tobacco had found its way to every major continent and had injected itself into native culture. Many rulers tried to keep it at bay, imposing fines and punishments for partaking in the smoking or sale of tobacco, but it was no use. Smoking had arrived and it wasn’t going anywhere. In 1881, James Bonsack came up with a machine to speed up the production of cigarettes. So it is simple to see why smoker just cannot remember the time when they did not smoke. Obviously, another reason that the smoker does not remember is seriously unpleasant nature of learning to the smoke process. Cigarette smoke is caustic, hot, chemical pollution and in case it gets in eyes, that makes them burn & water. It will make your skin little itchy in sensitive people. And the rest is history.
