Marijuana farming hurts environment, new study finds
https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2017/10/171031202705.htm
Planting cannabis for commercial production in remote locations is creating forest fragmentation, stream modification, soil erosion and landslides. Without land-use policies to limit its environmental footprint, the impacts of cannabis farming could get worse, according to a new study published in the November issue of Frontiers in Ecology and the Environment.
Earlier studies have shown that cannabis production causes environmental damage, including rodenticide poisoning of forest mammals and dewatering of streams due to improper irrigation.
Cannabis, as either a medicinal or recreational drug, is now legal in more than 30 U.S. states and in several countries. In California, where medicinal marijuana has been legal since 1996, voters in November approved the sale and possession of one ounce of marijuana for recreational use. As a result, cannabis production is ramping up.
Farming marijuana is not good for the environment.

Farming marijuana is not good for the environment.
It's not to good for those who smoke it either.

That's frickin' hilarious. The liberals complain about an innocent pipeline, but praise marijuana, that is destroying the environment.
