OPSS Launches Vape Safety and Disposal Campaign

Mirage News
The OPSS campaign promotes safe vape usage and proper disposal to reduce battery fires, injuries, and environmental harm.

Summary

The Office for Product Safety and Standards (OPSS) has launched a new campaign focused on vape safety and responsible disposal, targeting younger people. The initiative aims to raise awareness about the risks associated with improper charging, damaged batteries, and discarding vapes in general waste. Key recommendations include safely storing used vapes until recycling, removing the battery if possible, utilizing vape-specific recycling bins at retailers or recycling points, and unplugging vapes once fully charged. The campaign encourages the public to share safety messages using hashtags like #SmallHabitsBigDifference, #SafeVapeDisposal, and #DontBinThatVape.
