World No Tobacco Day is observed every year on May 31 to raise awareness about the harmful and deadly effects of tobacco use and to encourage people around the globe to quit tobacco for good. It is a powerful reminder that tobacco kills more than 8 million people each year and affects the health of millions more — even those who do not smoke.
In 2025, the message is louder and clearer: Let’s end tobacco addiction and protect our lungs, heart, and planet.
Tobacco doesn't just affect the smoker — it affects everyone around them. Here's how:
🗣️ "Quit smoking — it's not just your lungs you save, it's your life."
🗣️ "Every cigarette you don't smoke is a day you get back."
🗣️ "Your body deserves clean air. Say no to tobacco."
🗣️ "Don’t let tobacco control your story. Be the author of a healthy life."
🗣️ "You’re stronger than your addiction. You just have to believe it."
🗣️ "The best time to quit smoking was yesterday. The next best time is today."
While the official theme will be announced by the World Health Organization (WHO) closer to the day, previous themes like:
...have focused on health, sustainability, and awareness.
The 2025 theme is expected to promote youth protection, quitting support, or anti-industry marketing campaigns.
