Kids Are Vaping. One Talk Can Change That.
As cigarette use declines worldwide, Big Tobacco has expanded its offerings to include new products. Vapor products are one of the most alarming and threatening products from this generational shift. These products, often referred to as e-cigarettes, vapes, or by brand names such as Elf Bar, are using false marketing claims, trendy designs and nuanced issues to push addiction and mask the dangers of vaping on millions of young and unsuspecting customers.
Vapes are battery-powered devices that heat liquid for vapor inhalation. A product initially pitched as a cessation tool quickly evolved into a new harmful industry.
