This is an electronic cigarette that is powered by removable batteries
An estimated 766,571 metric tons of cigarette butts make their way into the environment every year , and according to the Bureau of Investigative Journalism, at least five disposable e-cigarettes are being thrown away every second in the United States, amounting to 150 million devices per year which together contain enough lithium for about 6,000 Teslas
This creates a potential loophole, as the base ingredients for nicotine-free e-liquids (propylene glycol, glycerin, and flavorings) often remain easily accessible without age restriction in general stores
You might not even notice that you are withdrawing from nicotine at all
In the words of Gabriele Jly, President of VOEB: The increase in products containing lithium batteries is jeopardising the existence of every single waste and resource management company
