Interesting Facts and Statistics:

The number of persons aged 12 or older who smoked cigarettes for the first time within the past 12 months was 2.4 million in 2008, similar to the estimate in 2007 (2.2 million) but significantly higher than the estimate for 2002 (1.9 million). Most new smokers in 2008 were under age 18 when they first smoked cigarettes (58.8 percent); however, the number of persons initiating smoking at age 18 or older increased from about 600,000 in 2002 to 1 million in 2008.

Among adults aged 18 or older, the rate of past month alcohol use increased with increasing levels of education. Among adults with less than a high school education, 36.7 percent were current drinkers in 2005, significantly lower than the 69.4 percent of college graduates who were current drinkers. However, among adults aged 26 or older, binge and heavy alcohol use rates were lower among college graduates (18.9 and 4.9 percent, respectively) than among adults who had not completed college (21.9 vs. 6.0 percent, respectively).

There have been numerous reports in communities throughout the United States of children and teens that have died from inhaling the canned air that many of us use to remove debris from our computer keyboards.

Among the 5.2 million adults on probation at some time in the past year, 23.9 percent reported current illegal drug use in 2008. This was higher than the rate of 7.5 percent among adults not on probation in 2008.
