This is a good example for why it is important to legalize marijuana; so this kind of destructive growing regime can be elimininated. These kinds of growers are nothing more than thugs and legalization will put them out of buisness. Thanks for posting DFG.

This video serves to expose the sophisticated marijuana cultivation, distribution and consumer network already in place in the state of California. Because of this network gross environmental damage is destructing our land. The CA Department of Fish and Game won't speculate on the impact legalization of marijuana would have on the land. Our wardens simply enforce the laws of the state.

@FreeMind209707 ...cant build your house and wipe yer butt with hemp!...plus this is not "hemp"...this is highly concentrated pot that destroys yer brain!!!

@mmmmmarcus when a stream is damed up to provide a water source for the pot farm, your favorite fishing hole dries up. That in turn remove the water source for animals. They leave the area looking for water somewhere else. Marcus....try thinking a little further than just the pot and your license.

@FreeMind209707 Fish and Game do not legislate. They only enforce existing laws. If the logging is done legally then there is no issue.

question? why not just let the m.j. grow wild, with no care. that way it's still good on the environment. take out the bad stuff and leave the green.?

[FreeMind209707]

But I gotta say, if Fish and Game cares so much they should straight up ban logging in California, a logger does much more damage than a weed grower. We should be farming hemp for paper in stead of killing trees.

I was hiking in a pretty remote region of the Stanislaus river around harvest time and I found an extremely camouflaged camp at the base of a south facing mountain, I turned around and ran the other way. I'm all for local herb growers, but not Mexican drug cartels who are destroying our waterways and threatening hikers.

@necronwarrior legalizing pot doesn't solve the problem. the cartels and gangs will just be the ones owning the dispensaries. look at cigarettes for one, they're on the black market and causing millions in lost revenue.

3:21 "It's a good message for people who think smoking marijuana's okay because its natural, this is very unnatural this is heavy duty pesticides, a lot of them are smuggled from mexico, and you can see all that pesticide residue on the plants. So people who are smoking pot are smoking that stuff right there."

If it was legal it would be safely produced. If they face long jail time, why wouldnt they risk death instead? No wonder they have guns.

Good example of how Prohibition creates the harm.

if it was legal no one would have any reason to buy/consume this toxic and illegally grown cannabis over legally and properly grown product

@scaposy He was using the leaf to show the pesticide residue you idiot. maybe you should quit smoking before your IQ dips below 50.
