The government has announced a ban on the sale of disposable vapes by June 2025, intending to prevent environmental damage. But just how damaging are they? 🗑️1.3 million disposable vapes are thrown away in the UK every week. 🔋 Plastic, copper, and a lithium-ion battery— that’s what vapes are made of. 🚮 With the amount of vapes that ended up in landfill last year, we could have recycled enough Lithium to produce 1,200 electric vehicle (EV) batteries. Now that Lithium is lost. ⛽️ Without Lithium, we cannot move away from Fossil Fuels. The International Energy Agency (IEA) forecasts that we will be facing Lithium shortages as early as 2025. We cannot be squandering it. ♻️ Vape-producing companies and UK Government need to act. Educating the public on the importance of recycling vapes, and providing easy pathways to do so, will help us reach Net Zero.
