carbon monoxcide is a waste of what?  (cigarette speaking)?

Though I dont entirely understand I can answer to my understanding of the question.\n\nWhen you inhale carbon monoxide from cigarette smoke the carbon monoxide binds to the hemoglobin in blood. Normally Oxygen would bind to this hemoglobin to allow oxygen to be transported to your body. While Carbon Dioxide sometimes bonds to blood, carbon monoxide has a stronger bond and is therefore harder to deal with when you inhale carbon monoxide.\n\nSo to answser your question:\n\nCarbon Monoxide is a waste of a) hemoglobin or b) red blood cells.

I'm a smoker (no, not bragging or trying to justify it....stupid habit). Still, as a smoker, I'm really irritated by smokers who do that. I always use an inside ash tray, besides making sure I'm way downwind of non-smokers even when I smoke outdoors. I think it's just the decent thing to do. Also, throwing cigs out of a moving car window is dangerous, not to mention stupid!

Carbon dioxide and other wastes. WHOA the second answerer is definitely going to win the voting.

black lungs,cancer in a few years, bad breath,and a pointless waste of their money for cigs.

I'll disagree with everyone.\n\nIt is true cars, industry, cows, etc., take together represent quite a significant pollutant pool.  However, every small change we make helps some.  \n\nIf the millions of people who smoke all quit at once, we would see\n1) less pollution from the smoke;\n2) no pollution from the companies making cigarettes (they would go out of business); \n3) no pollution associated with transporting them to distributors and then to stores;\n4) no pollution associated with driving to/from store to get them;\n5) no pollution associated with driving to/from hospital for lung cancer treatment;\n6) no pollution associated with heating/cooling outside smoking areas;\n\nAs you can see, the ramifications could be significant.

My husband and I watched the Surgeon General on TV the other  day talking about the new reports on second hand smoke from cigarettes.  He made the comment that it is a toxic and deadly killer...we both said at the same time, then why is it legal?\n\nI think alcohol can be used in moderation without harm, so lets keep that party going,\n\nI have a cop friend who says marijuana is the biggest waste of his time.  He hates having it illegal, said it's a joke.  I agree.  Besides, didn't they just prove that the smokers of pot have a LESS chance of lung cancer...?  \n\nI say, no smoking...unless it's a joint!  :)

I think you mean burning?? as in carbonising, you partly convert the tip of a wooden arrow or spear to charcoal, this carbon is harder than the wood., too much and it shatters.

Do you know how many chemicals there are in a blade of grass, or even a fingernail?  Tons!  The NUMBER of chemicals doesn't make a substance evil and is basically irrelevant.

Carbon dioxide. (it is a greenhouse gas, which can help to kill all life on earth, pretty harmful I would say.)

You don't need a chemical reaction.\nFrozen carbon dioxide, known as dry ice, can do the job.\nIt's in a thermos container, but as soon as it touches the air, it sublimates into gaz, producing the smoke. (To make more, put it in water instead.)  And it's heavier than air, so it stays close to the ground.  And it's not expensive!

the only medicine is to stop smoking

Not very effective.  It is like smoking a very low tar and nicotine cigarette.  I smoked it so hard my jaws actually began to ache.  (Seriously).I am also trying to put an end to this ugly and unhealthy habit.  I am trying to find a hypmotist in my area.  Good Luck to you!

Combustion of organic materials results in carbon rich solution. This means if you burn wood, petroleum, or cute little animals you get carbon, if you burn plastic you get a hunk of melted plastic.

even thou smokes contain rocket fuel funnily enough dope contains a hell of a lot more tar & the T.H.C is really bad for your chemical balance in your brain with long use sorry dude! but hey there both gonna kill you so why not do both?\nlol (pass the douche to the left hand side)

I so totally agree with you that cigarette butts are litter, and furthermore, dangerous to small children and pets if swallowed! We just got back from a camping trip to the beach and our campsite had cigarette butts all over the ground and even in the outdoor grill!  It was full of butts - we did not BBQ because there were SO many butts we preferred not to deal with their disposal.  The kids picked up all the butts around the site and believe it or not - they 1/2 filled a plastic WalMart bag with the butts.  Isn't that disgusting?
