How The Legal Cannabis Industry Is Tackling Sustainability

At its core, the U.S. cannabis industry is a resurgence of our country’s agriculture and manufacturing capabilities. From planting the cannabis seeds and harvesting the flower, to processing distillates and selling the finished product, this rapidly expanding industry relies on natural resources and stringent packaging requirements to even make it into the hands of a consumer. And like any other agricultural or retail business, it also creates waste that end up in landfills and produces harmful gases such as carbon dioxide and methane.
