Feelm has joined the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP), as part of the listing of its parent company, Smoore.

CDP is an independent not-for-profit organization that manages a global disclosure system and repository for environmental reporting by corporations,

municipalities and organizations around the world.

In 2021, more than 680 financial institutions, representing $130 trillion in assets, supported CDP’s request for data sharing, while over 13,000 companies, accounting for 64 percent of the world’s market capital, disclosed through CDP’s database. Phillip Morris International, British American Tobacco, Japan Tobacco International, Altria Group and Imperial Tobacco also take part in the CDP.

In May 2022, Feelm announced its commitment to achieve carbon neutrality by 2050, with a strategic executive plan that includes introducing zero-carbon vape technology solutions, adopting eco-friendly materials and green packaging, supporting the global supply chain in de-carbonization and activating a recycling program of vape pod cartridges and devices with clients.

“Carbon neutrality is an important component of our integrated ESG strategic plan as it helps to accelerate our business transformation, said Sofia Luo, marketing director of Feelm’s business division, in a statement.

“That is why Feelm follows the measures and roadmap outlined in the ‘Corporate Net-zero Pathway’ published by the UN in 2021. Feelm will press ahead with its commitment to comply with UN standards, disclose information transparently, and welcome scrutiny from international organizations and the public; in order to reach our vision of developing an eco-friendly and low-carbon economy.”

Japan Survey Finds 49.5% Would Cut Tobacco Use if Prices Rise, 64.6% Show Interest in Nicotine-Free Alternatives

A September online survey commissioned by Japanese smoking-accessories company Lightec found that 49.5% of respondents would consider reducing tobacco use if prices rose further, while 25.1% would consider switching to cheaper brands and 14.5% would consider using or combining alternatives such as vapes and nicotine-free herbal sticks. Another 64.6% expressed some level of interest in such alternatives. The survey covered 1,088 respondents aged 20 to 70 and was conducted by a company that sells NICOLESS nicotine-free vaping and herbal-stick products, meaning its findings should not be treated as representative of Japan's smoking population.

U.S. Health Groups Seek to Overturn FDA Enforcement Discretion for Pending PMTAs as Altria's Helix, NJOY and AVM Move to Intervene

American Vapor Manufacturers (AVM) and Altria subsidiaries Helix Innovations and NJOY filed separate motions on October 7, 2026, seeking to intervene on the FDA's side in a lawsuit challenging its enforcement guidance for certain e-cigarette and nicotine pouch products with pending premarket tobacco product applications (PMTAs). Seven public health and tobacco-control organizations, including the Campaign for Tobacco-Free Kids, sued the agency in July to overturn the policy. AVM argues that vacating the guidance could disrupt orders, inventory, retail distribution and investments in regulatory submissions.
