I totally disagree with this. It's not the energy consumption that's the problem but how the energy companies choose to produce this energy. Green energy would have a carbon-negative effect on cannabis farming, as cannabis, like all plants, turn CO2 into Oxygen. Then they'll say it's the chemicals used...

No matter what system is using energy, the electric companies are the ones at fault!

These days everything ordinary people do destroys the planet..but never the big companies.

but never the big companies

Isn't that the truth according to the big companies. If money wasn't controlling everything the world would be a much better place to live in.

Too right! I think if everyone who wanted weed could grow their own, the world would be a far better place too

[IMO]

It’s a drop in the ocean compared to other emitters, I don’t go abroad so as far as I’m concerned my carbon foot print is small as can be so the bit I use to grow is meaningless.

Totally agree on that. And lets not talk about the higher quality on their weed when they grow it themselves.
I have gotten absolute crap weed from dealers that wasn't worth 10 cents but it costed 10€ per gram.
