North Yorkshire Council has made a significant move towards safer waste disposal and sustainability by installing vape recycling bins at 20 recycling centres across the county. 🌍♻️ With five million single-use vapes being discarded every week in the UK, this initiative tackles a growing environmental issue, ensuring lithium-ion batteries, plastics, and metals from vapes are safely dismantled and recycled. These bins will prevent dangerous fires caused by incorrectly disposed vapes, protecting both people and the environment. 🔋🔥 This scheme complements existing efforts, such as the introduction of coffee pod recycling bins, to promote responsible waste management and reduce North Yorkshire’s carbon footprint. 🌱✅ Read more ➡️ https://loom.ly/FIKGuts - BBC News #VapeRecycling #Sustainability #ResponsibleDisposal #CircularEconomy #WasteManagement #GreenFuture #UKRecycling #EnvironmentalImpact #CouncilInitiative
