It was a pleasure to host @_RobbieMoore and talk about vape waste challenge. Many thanks Robbie for your enthusiasm around #WEEE, it is greatly appreciated by the recycling sector.

[Defra UK @DefraGovUK]

🤯 5 million disposable #vapes are thrown away every week in the UK.

♻️ It’s essential they’re recycled properly rather than put in the bin.

👀 Minister for Waste @_RobbieMoore MP visited Sweeep Kuusakoski’s waste processing centre to find out why.

Can you help us?

Our Sevenoaks reserve was raided over the weekend! The cost to replace the stolen power tools and repair the site is estimated at around £20,000.

If you have information, report it. If you want to help us, you can donate to our appeal.

@Morrisons found a couple of vapes in your car park but no in store vape recycling. Spoke with Chris Sittingbourne manager and he was adamant not a legal requirement. Recycled @Tesco instead!

To the person who keeps smashing plates at our nature reserve in #BlueBellHill - please stop.

This fly-tipping is a danger to wildlife, costs us money and time to clear up and can injure the many dogs walked here.

So sad and disappointingly.

We helped @Independent make this film about the problems caused by #DisposableVapes

https://t.co/fIBuI0BxCi

With 90% of vape manufacturers failing to meet obligations on collection, recycling and fire safety, whilst also making huge profits, there is urgent need for change and a ban on disposable vapes.

@Labourstone @recyclesweeep

[justin greenaway @recyclesweeep]

@LessWasteLaura @ASA_UK @recycleelectric Hi @LessWasteLaura I was saying important for @recycleelectric to not campaign for a ban. I am sounding a bit like a spokes person for them and I am certainly not. So will leave them to respond to you on subject if they want.

[justin greenaway @recyclesweeep]

@LessWasteLaura @ASA_UK @recycleelectric Totally agree our governments priority to ban plastic balloon holders and not single use lithium powered vape sticks seems like an obvious wrong priority….but just not correct for @recycleelectric to be a political lobbying voice. That role is down to us.

@DefraGovUK @HertsWasteAware Pleased we have single use plastic ballon sticks sorted but dare I say single use lithium powered fire starting vapes could have been higher up the list?

[Recycle Your Electricals @recycleelectric]

The number of ‘disposable’ single-use #vapes being thrown away in the UK has quadrupled within the last year, from 1.3 million to 5 million vapes per week.

Our research highlights the need for urgent action. Read the full research analysis here: https://t.co/8GG3LEUHQB

@recyclesweeep have just finished filming with Chris Choi consumer editor ITV.

Vapes will be on national ITV news tonight at 6.30pm.

Should they be banned?
Are they designed to attract underage use?
What environmental harm?

Thanks to @recycleelectric vape data and support.

@360env @Carfestevent Yes. Which is a shame because the youth audience in theory are our next wave of environmentally savvy ambassadors.

Deposit Return Scheme #DRS went live this weekend @Carfestevent

I think we have all been to music festivals and had a great time but trudging across a field of discarded bottles and cups takes the shine off.

@360env @Carfestevent Day after @Carfestevent a different type of festival going audience.
