Cigarette Smokers Worldwide
A recent post on the Economist’s Graphic Detail blog includes a global map of cigarette smokers in 2010, as reported by the American Cancer Society and World Lung Foundation. According to the post, cigarette consumption decreased in Western Europe by 26% from 1990 to 2010 but increased by 57% in the Middle East and Africa over the same time period. Also worth noting is the large disparity between the percentage of males and females that smoke which, according to the post, is largest in China, where 50% of men smoke but only 2% of women smoke.
