We envision a more sustainable and prosperous future born from a renewed awareness about cannabis. Cannabis has potential to solve some of the most perplexing issues facing the world today. As one of the world’s most sustainable, resilient, renewable, healing and useful plant species available, Cannabis has capacity to cure disease, eradicate hunger, remediate toxic soil, end deforestation, replace fossil fuels and reverse climate change. Since prohibition began in the the 1930’s, cannabis has become one of the most controversial and misunderstood substances on earth. Raising awareness is key to dispelling myths, earning public acceptance, achieving social justice and ultimately reversing prohibition. That is our mission. We endeavor to empower readers to move beyond public misperception with fact-based content that as is entertaining and inspirational as it is credible and informative. While we support patient advocacy and the end of prohibition, we hold ourselves to the highest standards of journalistic integrity and will always make our readers’ best interests our number one priority. We hope you enjoy The Cannabis Reporter and encourage you to engage with our resources, directory and social media. Please feel free to contact us with questions, suggestions you may have, or just to say “hello.”
