Today, on the occasion of World No Tobacco Day, we gather here to raise awareness about the harmful effects of tobacco on our health and well-being. Tobacco use is one of the leading causes of preventable death globally, causing millions of deaths each year. It not only affects the health of individuals but also puts a significant burden on the healthcare system and the economy.
As a society, we must work together to create an environment that promotes tobacco cessation and discourages tobacco use. Governments can play a critical role in this effort by implementing policies and programs that make it easier for individuals to quit tobacco. These may include increasing tobacco taxes, enforcing smoke-free laws, promoting comprehensive bans on tobacco advertising, and providing support for tobacco cessation programs.
As individuals, we can take small steps toward quitting tobacco. We can start by educating ourselves about the harmful effects of tobacco, setting a quit date, and seeking help from healthcare professionals, support groups, and quitlines. We can also encourage our friends and family who use tobacco to quit and support them in their journey toward a healthier life.
Let us commit to quitting tobacco and making a positive impact on our health and the health of those around us. Together, we can build a tobacco-free society and ensure a healthier and brighter future for ourselves and future generations.
Thank you.
The theme of World No Tobacco Day 2023 is “We need food, not tobacco” to raise awareness about alternative crop production and marketing opportunities for tobacco farmers and encourage them to grow sustainable, nutritious crops.
Sometimes Quitters Do Win. Quit Smoking.
Take A Better Route, Put That Smoke Out .
Tobacco – A Threat to development.
Your life is in your hands, to make of it what you choose.
Reject Not Regret Say No To Smoking.
Be Smart, Don’t Start.
If God Had Wanted Us To Smoke, He Would Have Given Us A Separate Hole For It.
If You Think Smoking Is Cool, You’Re A Fool.
Be Brighter, Put Down The Lighter.
Put It Out Before It Puts You
The World Is Your Oyster, Not An Ash Tray.
The World Is Your Oyster, Not An Ash Tray.
People are losing their family members and loved ones because of this addiction to tobacco. Have a positive and healthy World Tobacco Day!
