UNMASK THE APPEAL & BREAK THE CYCLE
World No Tobacco Day is celebrated every year on May 31. It is a global effort led by the World Health Organisation (WHO) to make people more aware of how smoking is bad for them and to push for policies that will help them quit. Since its inception in 1987, this day has been an important chance for health workers, activists and the government to talk about how bad tobacco is for people's health, the environment and economies around the world. Since tobacco use is still one of the biggest preventable causes of death worldwide, this observance is an important reminder of how urgent it is to eradicate tobacco use from our lives. Globally, there are 1.3 billion tobacco users, including an estimated 37 million children aged 13-15. Over 8 million deaths are caused by tobacco use each year, of which over 7 million are directly related to tobacco use and roughly 1.3 million are caused by secondhand smoke exposure for nonsmokers. Even though the risks of tobacco use are well known, addiction to it persists especially among young people. Because tobacco contains the extremely addictive chemical nicotine, it is difficult for users to stop once they have started. Additionally, tobacco smoke contains over 7,000 toxic chemicals including known carcinogens. These substances are linked to a number of severe health issues such as heart disease, stroke, lung cancer and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. Smokeless tobacco products such as chewing tobacco and snuff are linked to oral cancers, gum disease and other conditions.
