Orange Country, Florida is using a recent recycling truck fire to teach its residents about the dangers of hazardous waste.
Last week, a recycling truck in Orange County, Fl. broke out in flames due to improper waste disposal. Across the world, these kinds of fires are popping up in trucks and facilities due to several common items, such as vapes and other items housing lithium-ion batteries, being thrown away improperly.
The fire for this Orange Country truck was likely caused by rechargeable batteries, according to officials.
