Recently, the World Health Organization called for e-cigarettes to be banned in public places and workplaces [bbc.co.uk]. The WHO said this was because e-cigarettes could increase the levels of toxins and nicotine in the air. It also warned that e-cigarettes may introduce smoking to non-smokers. But now researches have criticized this move [bbc.co.uk] saying that e-cigarettes can actually save lives [theguardian.com] and hence their use should be encouraged.
