The aim of this presentation is to present students with the facts about the physical effects of vaping, looking at the mechanics of electronic cigarettes (also known as e-cigarettes or vape pens) and what goes into these vape pen juices, and how vaping can affect their lives beyond just their physical health.
The presentation will provide students with data based in science and research, rather than depending on not-entirely-accurate information youth may have seen online or heard from their friends. For example, many youth may have heard that e-cigarettes are a totally harmless alternative to smoking cigarettes since they don’t contain tobacco. However, vape pen juices actually contain aluminum, tin, and nickel - doesn’t seem quite as harmless anymore, does it?
The presentation also explores why some individuals decide to begin vaping by looking at the science behind what drives us to decide to try something new. This can help youth understand the motivation behind why they or their friends might choose to begin vaping, even though it’s harmful.

Videos also include students being interviewed about the vaping problem at their school, as well as an interview with the principal discussing the issue, and how many students they have suspended due to vaping. This would also be an opportunity for the principal to review the rules about vaping, and the consequences for any students caught vaping on school property.
