It’s widely assumed that smoking is smoking and that the risks of marijuana will therefore be equal to the risks of smoking tobacco, but this doesn’t appear to be the case. Additionally, cannabis vaporizers could reduce the risk of marijuana consumption even further.

Smoking tobacco is widely recognized as the leading preventable cause of death in the world. Smokers die an average of 10 years younger than non-smokers, and conditions such as lung cancer, coronary heart disease, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease are caused by smoking tobacco. Marijuana is also (usually) smoked, and so it seems natural to assume that the risks of smoking it would be equal to the risks of smoking tobacco. The marijuana smoke vs. tobacco smoke issue seems irrelevant because smoking in any form is bad. However, research appears to show that while marijuana smoking is still dangerous, it is less so than smoking tobacco. The biggest advantage marijuana has over tobacco, though, is that people who use it medicinally or recreationally (where allowed by law) don’t have to smoke it.
