In the summer of 2013 at a family barbeque I nonchalantly asked my aunt if there was any way I could volunteer at her job, an intercity Salvation Army Core, throughout the week. Asking this simple question that I initially didn’t put much consideration into, steered to far more than I could had ever anticipate. I projected what my experience would be like at the core playing out different scenarios in my head. I expected it to be similar to every other volunteer experience I had, simply assist the employees and perchance meet a few people along the way. I thought I would be working in a back pantry categorizing and bundling foods into care packages having minimal encounters.
Almost 17% of the adult population in the United States smoke cigarettes. Smokers are more likely to develop heart disease, stroke, lung cancer or blindness. Cigarettes smoking is the leading preventable cause of death in the United States, so there are ranges of advertisements showing the harmful effects of cigarettes, and always telling people to do not smoke it, either by images, statistics or phrases. Among all advertisements that shocks, there is one in particular that it was not necessary a single word on it to do that. This ad is a colorful one that was created by the Roy Castle which is a lung cancer foundation, and was released on December 2007 on magazines and newspapers in the United Kingdom.
A non-smoking ad that I recently came across shows a very strong message. The ad shows a man’s hands loading a gun with cigarettes. On the side of the picture it gives a list of thing that happen from smoking cigarettes. The last thing is a bold statement saying, “Smoking Kills ….so why bother starting”.
The advertisement does an outstanding job of demonstrating the severe and extreme consequences of smoking. The advertisement accurately captures the different forms in which smoking alters your life and how it can lead to immense health risks. If a smoker were to view the CDC advertisement video they would reconsider smoking due to all the negative health risks. They may even try to find a way to escape smoking or seek help to quit. If nonsmokers view this video it will educate them further on the true effects smoking has on your life, and also it will make them think twice before them
#CATmageddon: A Rhetorical Analysis As Aristotle said: “Quitting smoking is rather a marathon than a sprint. It is not a one-time attempt, but a longer effort.” The Truth is a national campaign designed to inhibit the use of tobacco in American teens. The campaign is made by Truth Initiative formerly known as the American Legacy Foundation, a public health nonprofit group created in 1999 as a result of “the Master Settlement Agreement between U.S. tobacco companies, 46 U.S. states, the District of Columbia, and five territories. Truth produces television and online content to promote anti-tobacco messages” (Wikipedia).
Regularly, I work as a volunteer at American Cancer Society. I aspire to assist the one who are on the edge of life.

On a daily basis, I watch numerous Canadian citizens puffing smoke and hacking as they hold their cigarettes and cigars between their middle and index fingers.
