Read this eye opener and try to quit.
The WHO's report on global statistics on tobacco deaths:
100 million people died of tobacco-related causes during the 20th century.
Tobacco currently kills 5.4 million people per year.
Tobacco use makes six of the world's eight leading causes of death -- including heart disease, stroke, and cancer -- more likely.
"Of the more than 1 billion smokers alive today, around 500 million will be killed by tobacco," states the WHO Report on the Global Tobacco Epidemic, 2008.
