Deozaan:
Marijuana causes global warming, uses 1% of U.S. electricity

People growing marijuana indoors use 1 percent of the U.S. electricity supply, and they create 17 million metric tons of carbon dioxide every year (not counting the smoke exhaled) according to a report by Evan Mills, an energy analyst at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory.

After medical pot use was made legal in California in 1996, Mills says, per-person residential electricity use in Humboldt County jumped 50 percent compared to other parts of the state.-http://www.bizjournals.com/sanfrancisco/news/2011/04/12/marijuana-causes-global-warming.html

What are hippies going to do now? They either have to stop the marijuana habit or admit they really don't care about global warming.

JavaJones:
Hah, that's hilarious. Of course if it was fully legal they could just grow out outdoors where there's plenty of natural light and the plants would actually be pulling carbon dioxide from the air...

And of course every marijuana user is a hippie, very good. I couldn't agree less.

I thought that too (as a response) but then I saw the point was that, [of the dope smokers,] it's only the hippies that care about global warming
(poor Deo get's a hard time...)
