Green Smoke Eco-Friendly Cigarettes Ensure Zero Ash, No Second Hand Smoke

July 9, 2010 / 1 Comment

In the wake of smoke-free laws that are taking over the country of USA, a number of companies are coming out with electronic cigarettes. One of them, Green Smoke, pitches its cigarette as an eco-friendly one. Electronic cigarettes do not emit smoke, instead trails of vapor come out of the fag end. And Green Smoke claims that their cigarette, by being a product that has no ash, secondhand smoke and no chances of setting anything on fire, can easily be termed as a green product.

 

Sources at the company clarify that the cigarette has no tar, toxins or carbon monoxide. An E-cigarette is a battery powered product that has a cartridge that contains nicotine, chemicals and other flavorings. The nicotine in the cartridge is converted to vapor, that is inhaled by the ‘smoker’. Although users who use this are technically, ‘vaping’ the propylene glycol/nicotine solution, not ‘smoking’. This method of ingesting nicotine, which is the addictive element in a cigarette, is supposed to be technically not damaging to the lungs and heart.

 The FDA and other health officials are, however, of the opinion that the device is not really as safe as the companies claim they are. They say that the cigarettes that were officially tested do contain carcinogens. This information has been publicly questioned by e-cigarette makers, who challenged the FDA’s take on this issue by filing a lawsuit.
