The liberalization of marijuana policies, including the legalization of medical and recreational marijuana, is sweeping the United States and other countries. Marijuana cultivation can have significant negative collateral effects on the environment that are often unknown or overlooked. Focusing on the state of California, where by some estimates 60%-70% of the marijuana consumed in the United States is grown, we argue that (a) the environmental harm caused by marijuana cultivation merits a direct policy response, (b) current approaches to governing the environmental effects are inadequate, and
大麻政策的自由化，包括医用大麻和娱乐用大麻的合法化，正在席卷美国和其他国家。大麻种植会对环境产生重大的负面附带影响，而这些影响往往不为人知或被忽视。以加利福尼亚州为例，据估计美国消费的大麻中有60%-70%是在该州种植的，我们认为：(a) 大麻种植造成的环境危害值得直接的政策回应；(b) 当前治理环境影响的方法并不充分；并且
