2024 was “a year of growth,” according to fire-suppression company Fire Rover, but that’s not an entirely good thing.
The company, which offers fire detection and suppression systems based on thermal and optical imaging, smoke analytics, and human verification, releases annual reports on waste and recycling facility fires in the US and Canada to select industry and media. In 2024, Fire Rover, based on its fire identifications, saw 2,910 incidents, a 60 percent increase from the 1,809 in 2023, and more than double the 1,409 fires confirmed in 2022.
Publicly reported fire incidents at waste and recycling facilities also hit 398, a new high since Fire Rover began compiling its report eight years ago, when that number was closer to 275.
Imagine that, your previous images were pulled from an article claiming these are being sold in Thailand by Chinese companies just like I thought, so your argument is that vapes should be banned in the US because of what may or may not be happening in Thailand?
How convenient for you and your argument since that means you only need to find one example of a bad thing happening in the world and can then apply that bad example to millions of other unrelated products sold elsewhere in the world. What happened to your argument claiming that these were being stopped by US Customs? That so quickly morphed into “it doesn’t matter if these products were actually shipped and sold here because Thailand!”
Your other article, from the rag that is the Daily Mail, claims that Squid Games is a children’s TV show, and only lists one western company receiving a notice (which they incorrectly called a “Canadian” company rather than a California based company in true Daily Mail fashion) for having a vape that resembles a banana. How convincing since we all know how crazy and insaitiable children get when they see something that slightly resembles a banana. They gotta have it!
Didn’t you already say that when you claimed you “didn’t get those images from a quick Google search” and “wouldn’t bother to verify the legitimacy of these products” even though you just now claimed to do a quick Google search to find the very articles that your images came from? Why such inconsistencies?
