Smoking and second hand smoke are indoor air pollution. The burning of tobacco releases nicotine, particulates, carbon monoxide and sublimated tobacco tars into the air. In addition the chemicals added to the tobacco to regulate its burning rate and humidity (e.g. glycerine) are released by the heat of the burning tip.These can be re-breathed by others (non-smokers) or deposited on surfaces as a film.
