Hookah smokers.
Hookah smoke that you inhale can contain 36 times more tar than cigarette smoke, 15 times the carbon monoxide, and 70% more nicotine than one cigarette. Hookah smokers may absorb more toxins and cancer-causing chemicals than cigarette smokers.

And, apparently, lead.

So have these people sit in the back of a bus and inhale all the exhaust. That would definitely clean up the air in some cities.

The purpose of smoking is to administer a dose of nicotine. If hookah gives you 70% more nicotine, but only 36% more tar, seems to me like a net improvement.
