Q1: what do you think about when you hear the term Solutions Not Addictions? #SolutionsNotAddictions

[Stacy Stevens @StacyStevens86]

@MikeOlmeda88 The plant is thirsty and consumed the water but the process of growing the plant causes the carbon dioxide to be released into the air.
#SolutionsNotAddictions

[Stacy Stevens @StacyStevens86]

16.5 tons of carbon dioxide is released into the air from indoor cannabis production in a single year. This is equivalent to 3 million cars!

This will conclude my live chat. Thank you to everyone that participated tonight. #SolutionsNotAddictions

@matthew72375609 This affects me because I have personally seen doctors prescribe addictive drugs instead of solutions for back problems. Those problems were ignored and now there is 6 weeks of antibiotics, hospital stays and even more pills that could lead to addiction

[Stacy Stevens @StacyStevens86]

@matthew72375609 Yes! When they get into the ground it goes into the water and can go into our crops. #SolutionsNotAddictions

Q4: what effects do you think marijuana production has on our environment?

Q3: have you heard about the illegal harvesting of the poppy plant to make opioids?
#SolutionsNotAddictions

[Stacy Stevens @StacyStevens86]

A single marijuana plant consumes 6 gallons of water a day. Most crops are in California and they continue to consume the water during the droughts
#SolutionsNotAddictions

[Stacy Stevens @StacyStevens86]

@Genine_Socs325 When it is harvested for purposes other than prescription medications it is illegal.
