Understanding Global Tobacco Use
Cigarettes smoked today represents one of the world's largest preventable health crises. With 18 billion cigarettes consumed daily and 1.1 billion active smokers, tobacco kills more people annually than HIV, malaria, and tuberculosis combined.
Also known as tobacco consumption, smoking statistics, and cigarette use, this metric is closely related to lung cancer rates, COPD, and cardiovascular disease mortality.
Our smoking counter tracks multiple dimensions including cigarettes per second, deaths by cause, economic costs, and regional consumption patterns.
