Imizabibu ikoreshwa inshuro imwe rukumbi ni ibikoresho byo kunywa itabi ry’ikoranabuhanga bikunze kugurishwa bifite uburyohe bushimishije kandi bipakiye mu buryo burangaza benshi bitewe nuko benshi baba bavuga ko biba bibaryoheye.
Byamenyekanye cyane mu rubyiruko ariko byanenzwe kubera ko bikubiyemo ibiyobyabwenge bya nikotine, bikaba byangiza ibidukikije.
Nora Melard, umuvugizi w’umuryango “World Without Tobacco,” yagize ati: “Ikibazo gikomeye ni uko urubyiruko rwinshi rutangira gukoresha imizabibu rudafite amakuru ku biri mo nka nikotin.”

Abanenga imizabibu ikoreshwa inshuro imwe rukumbi bavuga ko bihendutse cyane, kuko igiciro cyayo kiri munsi ya kimwe cya kabiri cy’itabi risanzwe. Ibyo bituma itabi rinyura cyane cyane mu rubyiruko. Abahanga mu by’ubuzima kandi baburira bavuga ko nikotine ikoreshwa n’urubyiruko ishobora kwangiza ubwonko, bikaba byanabaviramo guhinduka imbata z’ibindi biyobyabwenge.
Ku rundi ruhande, amatsinda arengera ibidukikije yamaganye imizabibu kuko ibikoresho byayo bikozwe mu bintu bigoye gusubirwamo, harimo plastike na bateri za lithium. Ibyo ngo bigira uruhare mu kwiyongera k’umwanda wa elegitoroniki, kuko iyo mizabibu ijugunywa nyuma y’iminsi mike ikoreshwa.
Mu gihe bamwe mu bakiri bato bibaza impamvu ibicuruzwa by’itabi gakondo bitabujijwe, hari abandi bishimira icyo cyemezo.
Yona Bujniak, utuye i Buruseli, yagize ati: “Ni byiza ko babihagarika burundu.” Yongeyeho ati: “Urubyiruko rwinshi ntirutekereza ku ngaruka zo gukoresha ibi bintu.”
