Smoking Tobacco and Cigarettes aids in the destruction of trees?
According to both www.ucanbreathe.com and www.tobaccoleaf.org, since the late 1800's, far before humanity became concerned with the environment, the tobacco industry has been reported to use at least 1% of all trees.
Nearly 12.5 million acres of forest are destroyed each year to provide trees to cure tobacco. That's about a tree every two weeks for the average smoker.
That means tobacco kills more humans and trees than fires ever would.
