Elf bars: The Downfall Of This Generation.
Elf Bars are disposable vapes that have many different flavors, but this could be the downfall of the new generation.
Disposable vapes don't seem to be that harmful, but Elf bars designed their vapes to be highly addictive, with 50 mg of nicotine compared to 12 mg of a cigarette; that's like smoking four cigarettes worth of nicotine. It also comes in so many different flavors, so it can appeal to many people even if they don't like the taste of vapes.
Meant For Cigarettes Quitters, Targeted Toward Young People.
Why would they put more nicotine in the vape if people are on vapes to quit smoking? I would say this would make ex-smokers keep smoking. They come in nice colorful boxes that make them more appealing to younger people, and they all these different flavors to try.
If they were trying to make ex-smokers quit, why do they pay influencers to promote this product.
It's easy to spend 18$ dollars on a vape for a party, and once you've taken a smoke, you are hooked. Then you can't stop buying them. This is how they trick you. They make you buy a vape because you see everyone you look up to online doing it then you're like, "It's harmless it just one" then you are addicted, so so many young people are using vapes.
About 4% of 11–14 years old vape. This doesn't seem like a lot, but it really is; it's sad someone at this young of an age is already hooked on vaping.
How Are They Marketed
They pay influencers to do an elf bar haul or along that nature; this will get teens hooked because they look up to this person and think, if their favorite influencer is doing it, why don't they do it?
Their ads are vibrant and promote so many different flavors. This makes it seem cool and will grow your social life because it almost seems like a status symbol.
Health For The User And The Earth
User
It is bad for your health it causes mouth cancer and lung cancer, we have not proven it gives you lung cancer, but it is pretty obvious that you are prone to get lung cancer you are breathing in a lot of chemicals you can't even pronounce and is made in some Chinese factory. Also, it is so addictive that you can suck down a whole vape in 1–2 days. A single elf bar is equal to 48 cigarettes. We have seen what happened to smokers this is way worse.
Earth
Even for the earth, these things are bad, these vapes use lithium batteries, and we already have really bad lithium problems. People throw away so many vapes, this is equivalent to 18,000-tesla batteries per year, and the amount of plastic that gets thrown is a ton.
How Does This Affect Society?
In the future, there's going be a lot of lung cancer reports of people starting at a young age, like 18, and they might have lung cancer in their 30s because this product is so addicting you are going to want more. This will mean deaths will rise, resulting in less baby for the next generation.
Also, there are going to be more people on the streets and in debt because they will not stop vaping because it is addicting, and if that doesn't happen, there is going to be more deaths.
These people will have it hard for the rest of their life because they are going to be addicts and develop some cancers.
The sadThe sad reality is these people will probably never get out of the party life and just stay a normal addicts.
Conclusion
Don't vape. It harms the planet, will give you lung cancer and is very addictive. Most likely, if you start at a young age, you're never going to quit.
