The unfortunate fact is marijuana use in teenagers is on the rise. This is linked to the fact that marijuana use is made to appear acceptable in pop culture, decriminalized by political powers, and lacking a body of scientific research on long term affects. However, more research is going into the long term affects of its use. It does not seem a huge mental leap to predict that studies will eventually begin to mount to show the negative affects of its use. However, will evidence change its use/abuse? We have known for a long time, with overwhelming evidence, that tobacco use causes a cascade of serious, debilitating illnesses in the human population. Will our society make the same mistake with marijuana that we have with tobacco and alcohol?
You will read the following studies that have reported their findings to the public.
Your task is to submit a review of these articles via email. Give a one paragraph summary of each article detailing the duration of each study, the individuals involved in the study, and the findings of each. Lastly the fourth paragraph of the review should include your opinions on Marijuana use among your peers.
