Teenagers in high school are reportedly smoking more electronic cigarettes.

According to the Daily News, a new state Health Department survey says more than 20 percent of teens were puffing e-cigs last year.

That's 10 percent higher than in 2015.

This comes as traditional smoking rates among high school students drop to a record low.

Some people believe vaping is better for your health than conventional cigarettes.

But several officials say they still pose health risks as most brands contain a liquid form of nicotine.

As a result, the Governor has called for a 10-cent-per-mililiter tax on the liquid used in e-cigs.

He's also proposed a ban on them in public spaces, under the Clean Air Act.
