What is the trend of tabaco consumption in the world isn of 1990, can you provide sources!?
gpt
According to the WHO global report on trends in prevalence of tobacco use 2000-2025 third edition [1], overall global tobacco use has fallen from 1.397 billion in 2000 to 1.337 billion in 2018, or by approximately 60 million people. This has been largely driven by reductions in the number of females using these products (346 million in 2000 down to 244 million in 2018, or a fall over around 100 million). However, male tobacco use had risen by around 40 million, from 1.050 billion in 2000 to 1.093 billion in 2018 (or 82% of the world’s current 1.337 billion tobacco users). The report also projects that the number of male tobacco users will decline by more than 1 million come 2020 and 5 million less by 2025.

Another source [2] shows that smoking is responsible for about 8 million premature deaths each year and that about 15% of global deaths are attributed to smoking. Smoking deaths typically affect older populations: more than half of deaths occurred in people over 70 years old; 93% were over 50 years.

A third source [3] provides statistics on tobacco production worldwide from 1990 to 2021 (in 1,000 metric tons). It shows that tobacco production peaked in 1997 with about 7.5 million metric tons and then declined to about 4.6 million metric tons in 2021.

I hope this information is helpful and answers your question.

which are the countries with the biggest rank of tobacco consumption?

Here are the top 10 countries with the highest tobacco consumption in 2020, according to the World Health Organization:

1. Indonesia
2. Myanmar
3. Thailand
4. Vietnam
5. Greece
6. Ukraine
7. Russia
8. Belarus
9. India
10. Kyrgyzstan

These countries all have a high prevalence of tobacco use, with more than 40% of adults smoking cigarettes. Tobacco use is a major public health problem, and it is estimated to cause more than 7 million deaths each year. The WHO is working to reduce tobacco consumption around the world, and it has set a goal of reducing the global prevalence of smoking to less than 30% by 2025.

Here are some of the reasons why tobacco consumption is so high in these countries:

**Poverty:** Many people in these countries live in poverty, and they may not have access to affordable healthcare or education. This can make it more difficult for them to quit smoking.
**Culture:** In some cultures, smoking is seen as a sign of masculinity or adulthood. This can make it more difficult for people to quit smoking, even if they know it is harmful.
**Advertising:** Tobacco companies spend billions of dollars each year on advertising. This advertising can be very effective in targeting young people and encouraging them to start smoking.

The WHO is working to address these challenges and to reduce tobacco consumption around the world. It is working to raise awareness of the health risks of smoking, to make it more difficult for people to start smoking, and to help people quit smoking.
