Curious to see what happens when disposables are outlawed.

[-] Tweak@feddit.uk 13 points 9 months ago

Not a lot, the kids just switch to reusables, or continue to buy the same disposables from dodgy drug dealers.

Let's see.

It'd be something if I we didn't have people chucking them all over the floor.

Yeah I'm all for that. However deposit schemes are also proven very effective at reducing waste on the floor. People will even pick up other peoples' litter if they can get money back for it.

It does wind me up that this is all painted as "think of the children!!" when it won't do much to stop children getting and using vapes, but at least it should address disposable devices that should never have been made as disposable.
