As the movement to legalize marijuana
gains traction, some environmental activists and celebrities are
throwing in their support for legalization, while others have simply
admitted to using pot at some point in their lives.
Many celebrities and politicians have publicly come forward as either
current or reformed pot smokers. There are some, like Paul McCartney,
who have reportedly left those days behind them. At the age of 69, McCartney told Rolling Stone
that he smoked his share already. "Enough's enough," he said. On the
other end of the spectrum are those still rolling, like famous director
Oliver Stone. “It can be done legally, safely, healthy,” Stone insisted in a recent Associated Press interview.
Some environmentalists have voiced concerns over a report suggesting indoor marijuana growing
may account for one percent of U.S. electricity consumption, with
advocates arguing that by legalizing pot, the footprint could be reduced
with more outdoor growing.
