Marijuana Law, Policy & Reform

Looking at the environmental impact of illegal marijuana cultivation and import of legalization

By Douglas Berman

As my Marijuana Law, Policy & Reform seminar is approaching its final class, a final set of students are scheduled to deliver presentations on the marijuana-related topics of their choosing.  One such student has decided to “focus on the environmental impact of illegal marijuana cultivation, and how/why legalization can mitigate these effects.” 

Here are readings she has suggested as background on this topic:
