BBC World Service - The Inquiry, Is the legal cannabis business about to go global?

What does the future look like for the cannabis ‘Green Rush’?

As countries around the world change their cannabis laws, Tanya Beckett asks what the future of the legal cannabis industry might be.

Changes to the laws governing cannabis use are happening around the world. The number of States in the USA legalising cannabis is increasing rapidly. Uruguay and Canada have legalised it already, and Mexico may soon follow suit. 

Tanya Beckett looks at the different models of legalisation and at what might be holding the global cannabis industry back.
