People around the world have a lot of drugs to choose from, but marijuana, far and away, is the world’s drug of choice.
According to data compiled by the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime, cannabis is the most used drug in nearly every country on Earth.*
And although it is the most consumed drug in the world, marijuana is not the most treated drug in the world; that honor goes to opioids.
One country, however, is trying hard to combat its pot problem. New Zealand, according to the data, ranks third in the world for cannabis use, just behind the United States and Iceland.
Pot flows pretty free in New Zealand, however, the government is trying to help those who wish to quit by pumping $120 million into drug treatment programs, or as the research team noted, about $27 per New Zealand citizen.
