E-cigs

Good evening, everyone!  This is Shinnosuke.
Today, I'll write about e-cigs


I am a little worried about the popularity of e-cigs
As we learned in class, e-cigs were invented to improve smoking habit gradually.
In addition, it is harmless, and young people like children are not allowed to buy e-cigs.
At first glance, e-cigs seem to be safe, but I think it is not good.
For example, suppose that the e-cig age would be 20.
Then I guess that most people who have reached 20 would start to use e-cigs simply because they are harmless and others also use them.
At first, they can enjoy different types of e-cigs and will be satisfied with them, but I am afraid that they may start to wonder what real smoking is like.
This can be the beginning of a bad smoking habit.
Young people tend to show curiosity to new things, and the spread of e-cigs may become pre-step for real smoking.
In short, e-cigs have a bad effect on the young, and the popularity of e-cigs may increase the number of young smokers ironically, so I am against e-cigs.


I couldn't come up with the good reason why Japanese tobacco companies will never sell e-cigs, but I think that is because of Japanese law and the decrease of sales of real tobacco.
I'm not sure...
