cigarettes that can barely help to destroy the ozone layer that leads us to

countries, where an estimated 84% of the world’s 1.3 billion current smokers
live. The Global Youth Tobacco Survey (GYTS), part of the Global Tobacco
(WHO) and CDC, was developed to monitor youth tobacco use, attitudes
about tobacco, and exposure to tobacco smoke, and has been completed by
approximately 1.4 million students in 133 countries. A key goal of GTSS is for
countries to conduct the GYTS every 4 years. This report presents findings

Philippines reported ever smoking cigarettes (i.e., even one or two puffs):
