Banning disposable vapes

Great news today , hope it gets through parliament

Figures from the Action on Smoking and Health (Ash) charity suggest 7.6% of 11 to 17-year-olds now vape regularly or occasionally, up from 4.1% in 2020.
The ban is expected to be introduced across the UK, the government said.

Matt Carpenter, head teacher at Baxter College in Kidderminster, told BBC Radio 5 Live vaping was a "huge part of youth culture" and said the proposed ban on disposable vapes was a "big step forward".
Glyn Potts, head teacher at Newham Catholic College in Oldham, said action needed to be taken to stop children being "bombarded" with "attractive" products on social media and in shops across the country.
He also told BBC Radio 4's Today programme there was evidence that some vape pens had been repurposed to contain "cannabis derivatives" which he claimed could hospitalise young people.

I’m glad people are talking about this, because the rise in vaping is worrying. If the ban goes through, it should help cut waste and make access harder for kids.

I switched over a while back because Nic Salts gave me a smoother hit without cranking up the wattage, and the flavour range kept things fun instead of harsh. I mostly stick to mid‑strength options since they feel more balanced for day‑to‑day use. If you’re trying to fine‑tune your setup or explore new flavours, Nic Salts made it pretty easy for me to find something that clicked.

The ban should only be for young people. For everyone else, it's always a great way to relax and unwind. I enjoy trying different setups depending on my mood-sometimes something portable, sometimes a more powerful device at home. Having that flexibility makes vaping more of a hobby than just a habit. While exploring vaporizers at hazesmokeshop.ca, I noticed they offer a mix of both styles. It's cool to see that variety in one place.
