World No Tobacco Day

May 31, 2022

 

This year's theme is Tobacco harms the environment. The World Health Organization (WHO) states "The harmful impact of the tobacco industry on the environment is vast and growing adding unnecessary pressure to our planet’s already scarce resources and fragile ecosystems. Tobacco kills over 8 million people every year and destroys our environment, further harming human health, through the cultivation, production, distribution, consumption, and post-consumer waste."
