The number of people using tobacco continues to decline despite industry attempts to jeopardize progress towards stamping out cigarettes and other such products, the World Health Organization (WHO) said in a report published on Tuesday.
Smoking weed will bring a lot of the negative health effects of tobacco smoking. Is it so cool that one may underestimate it? That reminds me of something.
Now, yes, burning any plant material will release carcinogens that can increase cancer risk. Incidentally, this includes sitting around a campfire, but most people in developed countries don’t do that every day. However, studies on marijuana smoke find that smoking one joint a day for a year gives slightly elevated testicular cancer risk, and inconclusive results for other cancers.
Possibly, marijuana has a protective effect that tends to cancel out the inherent carcinogens.

If you’re smoking weed like you would smoke tobacco, you’ve got too much damn money and aren’t doing anything in your life anyhow.
There’s so much garbage in tobacco cigarettes that the comparison is barely worth making.
