The UK is facing a significant problem with the black market for disposable vapes, which are sold ubiquitously and often illegally. Approximately five million disposable vapes are discarded weekly, prompting PM Rishi Sunak to announce a ban on single-use vapes. However, this ban may inadvertently fuel the black market, with industry insiders estimating that 40-50% of vapes in the UK are illicit. The issue traces back to Shenzhen, China, known as 'Vape Valley,' where most global vapes are produced. Mislabeling and minimal enforcement of regulations contribute to the problem. Experts suggest that a bottom-up approach, including education and strict licensing laws, would be more effective than a blanket ban, which could strengthen the black market and fail to address environmental concerns.
