Estonian Groups Want Disposable Vapes Banned by 2027
A coalition, led by the Estonian Green Movement, comprising 50 organizations and school leaders, urged Estonian government ministries to implement a nationwide ban on disposable e-cigarettes by 2027. The appeal, submitted to multiple ministries, warns about the health risks to youth, nicotine addiction, and environmental waste linked to single-use vapes. It emphasizes public support, with over 2,000 signatures collected for a similar initiative by 2025, and advocates for banning disposable devices while controlling reusable options more strictly.
