Geneva’s cantonal parliament voted almost unanimously to ban disposable e-cigarettes, citing health risks for youth and environmental harm. The measure, passed with an emergency clause, takes effect immediately.
Several Swiss cantons, including Valais, Bern, and Jura, have already adopted similar bans, while a nationwide ban is underway after both houses of parliament backed legislation to outlaw single-use “puff bars.” Rechargeable e-cigarettes remain exempt.
