WORLD NO TOBACCO DAY 31.05.2021



World No Tobacco Day (WNTD) is observed around the world every year on 31 May. This yearly celebration informs the public on the dangers of using tobacco, the business practices of tobacco companies, what the World Health Organization (WHO) is doing to fight against the use of tobacco, and what people around the world can do to claim their right to health and healthy living and to protect future generations.

The Member States of the WHO created World No Tobacco Day in 1987 to draw global attention to the tobacco epidemic and the preventable death and disease it causes. The day is further intended to draw attention to the widespread prevalence of tobacco use and to negative health effects, which currently lead to more than 8 million deaths each year worldwide, including 1.2 million are the result of non-smokers being exposed to second-hand smoke.The day has been met with both enthusiasm and resistance around the globe from governments, public health organizations, smokers, growers, and the tobacco industry.

  • Replacing the smoke on your face with a smile today will replace illness in your life with happiness tomorrow. Quit now.
  • Eliminate tobacco from your life before it kills you!
  • We need to burn calories daily, not tobacco!
  • If we lose the battle against tobacco, we will lose the war against cancer.
  • Smoking cigarettes is like paying to have your life cut shorter – the most foolish thing anyone can ever do.
  • Exercising is one of the best ways to quit smoking. Working out is when you will truly realize how cigarettes have made you weaker. It will be difficult but you will need to remind yourself of the prize at the end of the journey – a better life. Go for it.
  • If you can’t stop smoking, cancer will.
  • Smoking is like paying someone to kill you. They’re rich; you’re dead.
  • Smoking does not make you a KILLER per se, but your heart will drown in GUILT if second-hand smoke gave someone in your own family a life-threatening disease. Save a lifetime of regret – quit today.
  • Smoking leaves an unseen scar. It fills your insides with toxins and tar.
