Although it sparks controversy and is banned in many countries, cannabis remains widely consumed. According to *The Telegraph*, citing the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC), Iceland has the highest cannabis consumption rate, with 18.3 percent of its population using the drug.

The United States ranks second in cannabis use, with a rate of 16.2 percent. Nigeria is third, at 14.3 percent.

Several European countries are now witnessing growing movements advocating for the legalization of cannabis. These movements urge governments to permit cannabis use to reduce organized crime and increase state revenue. Portugal legalized cannabis in 2001, and Uruguay followed suit in 2013.
