While cannabis has been used across the world for more than 3,000 years as a health supplement, the plant\u2019s recent legalization across a number of U.S. states \u2013 a move expected to go nationwide as the U.S. House of Representatives is scheduled to vote on federal cannabis legalization<\/a> at the end of March \u2013 has unfortunately delayed necessary research into the industry\u2019s widespread impact, particularly on the environment. In fact, while countless cannabis farms seem to be starting up left and right in an eager rush to earn a piece of the lucrative market\u2019s proverbial pie, there\u2019s a considerable lack of evidentiary studies<\/a> into the fast-growing industry\u2019s harm to the planet. Still, the few pieces of reliable research that are publicly available for review reveal a startling trend: cannabis cultivation is shockingly bad for the environment.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhile the environmental impact of cannabis cultivation is a new area of research, early studies show that sustainability needs to be an important consideration of cannabis cultivation,\u201d found Popular Science\u2019s Shaena Montanari<\/a>. \u201cResearch from Colorado State University shows that one serving of THC has a much higher greenhouse gas footprint<\/a> than a serving of beer, wine, or cigarettes. One of the biggest reasons for this disparity\u2014energy-intensive indoor growing.\u201d<\/p>\n

As a new player in the cannabis market, up-and-coming organic cannabis brand Hemuly<\/a> looks to rewrite the rules of cannabis cultivation through its innovative cultivation practices. Originally founded by Anastasia Romanova<\/a> and Dojcilo Scekic, Hemuly<\/a> consciously seeks to evolve as a brand beyond agricultural growth and toward societal growth as well, pledging 20% of its revenue to charities with a focus on endangered animals, children in need, and, all-importantly, prisoners who have been convicted for cannabis use and possession.<\/p>\n

\u201cCannacare is not only committed to running an 100% organic operation, it is also committed to pushing the standards of the industry closer to its environmentally friendly stance and values,\u201d says Romanova and Scekic.<\/p>\n

To embrace its fully-organic ethos, Cannacare has introduced its own proprietary technology and cultivation practices alongside industry-standard equipment to produce its completely organic and sustainable cannabis product. Using zero pesticides and zero chemical-filled fertilizers, Cannacare\u2019s Oklahoma and California-grown crops are able to flourish throughout growth in the brand\u2019s organic, compost-boosted soil.<\/p>\n

But for Romanova and Scekic, eliminating chemicals isn\u2019t enough; the duo has helped mastermind innovative technologies to cut down on other common waste problems throughout the cannabis cultivation process. Between the development of its own proprietary AAA+ LED lights and an ingenious irrigation system, Cannacare has been able to maximize the growth of its cannabis crops, all while reducing excess energy and water waste in turn.<\/p>\n

Though much is left to be discovered about the cannabis industry\u2019s true environmental impact, an overwhelming need for a sustainable shift in practices has thrust innovators like Romanova, Scekic, and Cannacare into a unique and powerful position: being the change they want to see in the world.<\/p>\n
