One of my favorite perks from switching to vaporizers is that I am not creating this particular type of plastic waste. People don’t seem to realize how much plastic is in a single bic lighter. Dozens of plastic bottles worth of plastic.
Edit: I should’ve said “several” water bottles not “dozens.” I googled the weight of a bic lighter and a bottle and it’s probably 2 or 3 water bottles.
I hadn’t considered that, but that should definitely be added to the pro column. Vapor is just significantly easier on the lungs. The original reason I switched to vapor was so I could climb mountains in Washington without stopping for a break every 5 minutes. The difference in lung endurance is massive.
I can’t see how it’s dozens of bottles worth in that small space. It’s mostly empty for the lighter fluid too. Just a bottle cap and bottle threading is a decent amount of plastic. Maybe 2 or 3, sure.

Ummm Zippos would like a word with you. Or matches… Or hemp wick… Like if that’s really your concern there were plenty of options.
They just want to brag about having a vaporizer

Plus vapes don’t have all of the carcinogens from burning plant matter

You’re right, dozens was an exaggeration. I added an edit to my comment.
