OUR SHOCKING STATISTICS
45%
The number of students age 11-18 that admit to vaping
This statistic shocked us the most as government surveys show this number to be at only 7%. We believe that the real figure is somewhere around 35-45% as many people don't admit to it
~85%
The number of students that believe vaping starts from peer pressure
Our main aim at Red Tape The Vape is to tackle this issue as peer pressure gets people addicted to vape and then they cant stop
100%
of people with nicotine addiction battle it for the rest of their life
Unlike other drugs where if you quit after 2-3 weeks the physical substance cravings stop due to the receptors in the brain dying. The nicotine receptors in the brain never fade meaning once you are addicted to nicotine it is a daily battle to stop
73%
The number of students that see vaping as normal
This is a difficult problem to tackle as it shows just how dangerous vape culture is as once people see it as normal we are fighting a losing battle.
