The '''health effects of tobacco''' can be significant, depending on the way the [[tobacco]] is used ([[tobacco smoking|smoked]], [[snuff (tobacco)|snuffed]] or [[Chewing tobacco|chewed]]) and the amount. Major health effects of smoking, the most common use of tobacco, include an increased risk in [[lung cancer]] and [[cardiovascular disease]]. The [[World Health Organization]] estimate that tobacco caused 5.4 million deaths in 2004<ref name="WHO">[http://www.who.int/entity/healthinfo/global_burden_disease/GBD_report_2004update_full.pdf WHO global burden of disease report 2008]</ref> and 100 million deaths over the course of the 20th century<ref name=WHO2>[http://www.who.int/entity/tobacco/mpower/mpower_report_prevalence_data_2008.pdf WHO Report on the Global Tobacco Epidemic, 2008]</ref>. Similarly, the United States [[Centers for Disease Control and Prevention]] describes tobacco use as "the single most important preventable risk to human health in developed countries and an important cause of premature death worldwide."<ref name="fn1">"[http://www.cdc.gov/tobacco/quit_smoking/you_can_quit/nicotine.htm Nicotine: A Powerful Addiction]." Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.</ref> Rates of smoking have leveled off or declined in the developed world. Smoking rates in the United States have dropped by half from 1965 to 2006 falling from 42% to 20.8% in adults.<ref>[http://www.cdc.gov/mmwr/preview/mmwrhtml/mm5644a2.htm#fig Cigarette Smoking Among Adults - United States, 2006<!-- Bot generated title -->]</ref> In the developing world, tobacco consumption is rising by 3.4% per year.<ref>[http://www.wpro.who.int/media_centre/fact_sheets/fs_20020528.htm WHO/WPRO-Smoking Statistics<!-- Bot generated title -->]</ref>
