More than 101 thousand tons of tobacco
More than 101 thousand tons of tobacco
This is what burns every year in France, specifically 101,756 tons of tobacco. Taking into account the resident population over 15 (smokers and non-smokers, both included), this means that each person smokes 6 cigars daily or 6.5 grams of tobacco. This consumption has remained the same in the last fourteen years.
What has changed has been the quality of tobacco. Now 60% of the cigarettes burned are blond and 12 years ago only 15%. The tar rate has also decreased: In 1960 it was 30.5 milligrams and is currently 17 milligrams.
The expense made for the burning of tobacco is also not negligible: About 800,000 million pesetas (42,500 million pounds), equivalent to expenditure on milk or vegetables or 1.2% of all expenses. These data are average, including non-smokers. Therefore, the data provided for the smoker are much higher.
In the classification carried out by WHO (World Health Organization), large tobacco consumers are those who burn more than 8 cigarettes a day on average (Greece, United States, Poland, Switzerland, Yugoslavia and Turkey, for example). France is a medium smoker and about 5 cigarettes a day Norway, Portugal, Sweden, Finland, Denmark, etc. They are.
