Introduction:

Assalamualaikum, I bid to our dedicated principal, our noble teachers, and fellow students. Good __morning/ evening__ to all intellectual ladies and gentleman here. In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful, I’m ______(name of student)______ from ___(Class)____ SAMT Sultan Salahuddin Abdul Aziz Shah, Sabak Bernam, Selangor, feel greatly honoured to stand here before you to give a very inspiring and interesting talk; entitled “HAZARD OF SMOKING”.
DEFINITION FROM WIKIPIDIE
A hazard is a situation that poses a level of threat to life, health, property, or environment. Most hazards are dormant or potential, with only a theoretical risk of harm; however, once a hazard becomes "active", it can create an emergency situation. A hazard does not exist when it is not happening. A hazardous situation that has come to pass is called an incident. Hazard and vulnerability interact together to create risk

SMOKING: is a practice in which a substance, most commonly tobacco and/or cannabis, is burned and the smoke is tasted or inhaled. This is primarily practised as a route of administration for recreational drug use, as combustion releases the active substances in drugs such as nicotine and makes them available for absorption through the lungs. It can also be done as a part of rituals, to induce trances and spiritual enlightenment.
CHEMICAL IN CIGARRATE SMOKING
-PESTICIDE
A pesticide is defined as a chemical used to kill pests, usually insects. Pesticides are toxic, and if we use them on our lawns or gardens, we're careful to avoid direct contact if possible. We certainly wouldn't knowingly breathe pesticides into our lungs, yet that is exactly what smokers do every time they take a puff of a cigarette.
Researchers at the Colorado School of Mines in Golden, Colorado, have recently identified three previously undetected pesticides in cigarette smoke.

    2). Carcinogens and chemicals such as nicotine, formaldehyde, and diacetyl have been found in e-cigarettes that have been proven to be of harm to human health. For example, diacetyl has been showed to cause acute-onset bronchiolitis obliterans, which is a severe and irreversible obstructive lung disease (Rowell and Tarran, 2015, p. 8). Chemists have found various levels of chemical metals in vapor including chromium, nickel, tin, silver and aluminum when the heating elements of e-cigarettes are operated at high voltage. These chemical findings have also been related to findings in combustible cigarette usage. E-cigarettes also may potentially contain harmful compounds that are not found in tobacco products, such as propylene glycol. Propylene glycol allows for the formation of a visible vapor and is known to be a respiratory…
