Laura Young, 26, has told how Scottish beauty spots are becoming swamped with discarded vapes
A Scots campaigner has almost single-handedly been raising the alarm on disposable vape pollution in our streets, green spaces and beaches.
"And then every single day since - every single day since - I've been seeing them, finding them in the streets, in parks, in city centres, residential areas, finding them everywhere.” "And also realising they contain batteries which have precious materials that are just going to waste. The majority of them go to landfills."
"Whereas disposable vapes are sold in multipacks right at the front of the shop - and there’s a growing research body showing these are highly-targeted at young people.”
