長(zhǎng)期以來(lái)，吸煙一直是我們?cè)S多人都想改掉的習(xí)慣，但事實(shí)證明這很難。

好消息是，近來(lái)人們?cè)絹?lái)越關(guān)注戒煙者，并試圖實(shí)現(xiàn)無(wú)煙社會(huì)。

世界無(wú)煙日是為那些努力戒煙的人設(shè)立的，并鼓勵(lì)其他人也這樣做。人們想慶祝（建立）一個(gè)更清潔、更健康的社會(huì)。這也是設(shè)立世界無(wú)煙日的原因之一30 多年前，世界衛(wèi)生組織發(fā)起了慶祝世界無(wú)煙日活動(dòng)，鼓勵(lì)人們戒煙。

這是為了讓人們知道這種習(xí)慣的危害性，以及它每年造成數(shù)千人失去生命的事實(shí)。這個(gè)節(jié)日的重點(diǎn)是改善無(wú)煙環(huán)境和肺部健康，這在社會(huì)中發(fā)揮著重要作用。人們需要更好地照顧自己，這是他們實(shí)現(xiàn)這一目標(biāo)的方法之一。

事實(shí)上，很多人都知道吸煙對(duì)自己有害，但他們可能并不真正知道吸煙的習(xí)慣會(huì)帶來(lái)哪些健康問(wèn)題。世界無(wú)煙日旨在幫助他們認(rèn)識(shí)到這一點(diǎn)，并讓人們有機(jī)會(huì)做出正確的改變。這樣，他們才能過(guò)上更健康的生活。

為了慶祝世界無(wú)煙日，人們應(yīng)該幫助吸煙者減少日常吸煙數(shù)量。在接下來(lái)的一年里，他們會(huì)開(kāi)始感覺(jué)更健康，更有活力，并省下更多的錢(qián)。那不就是有史以來(lái)最盛大的慶?；顒?dòng)嗎？
