World No Tobacco Day is observed around the world every year on May 31. World No Tobacco Day was created in 1987 by the member states of the World Health Organization.
The purpose of World No Tobacco Day is to encourage countries and governments to work towards strict regulation of tobacco products.
Tobacco is the leading preventable cause of death in the world. It causes 1 in 10 deaths among adults worldwide. In 2005, tobacco caused 5.4 million deaths, or an average of one death every 6 seconds. At the current rate, the death toll is projected to reach more than 8 million annually by 2030 and a total of up to one billion deaths in the 21st century.
