"An L.A. Times/WeedWeek investigation finds alarming levels of pesticides in cannabis products at dispensaries across the state".
"Aging yuppies in neon beachwear stand before a green wall with the catchphrase “You have changed ... so has cannabis.”
The social media post is part of “Real CA Cannabis,” a $5-million taxpayer-funded campaign to promote California cannabis as safe, tested and “regulated by the state to protect consumers.”
In reality, that safety is far from certain.
An investigation by The Times, in conjunction with cannabis industry newsletter WeedWeek, found alarming levels of pesticides in cannabis products available on dispensary shelves across the state, including some of the most popular brands of vapes and pre-rolled weed."
Paige St. John and Alex Halperin report for the Los Angeles Times and WeedWeek June 14, 2024.
