Bridging The Education Gap

Welcome back to Everything Cannabis!

It’s Kenny here.

For today's post, I am going to quickly share with you the education pathway so that we can continue to go down the logical path in regards to education and conversations about cannabis.

Before we get into the education pathway, I just want to take a few moments to provide you with a bit of a backstory about myself. I've already shared this in the very first video of Everything Cannabis on YouTube, but I think it's important to share it again with you as we’re just getting started.

Currently I am an entrepreneur working in the medical cannabis space in Australia, and we work with doctors, pharmacies, and patients to help provide equitable access to cannabis for those who need it most.

I've been a recreational user of cannabis for 10+? years now and over the last ten years of consuming cannabis, not once have I ever asked myself how cannabis is actually helping me.?

If I find myself asking this question, it means there's a gap in my knowledge and education about cannabis. And if there's a gap in education for me, how many other people are uneducated about this magical plant??

Here at Everything Cannabis we want to help bridge the gap in education about cannabis by providing our community with the right education, so they can go out there and make their own decision when it comes to the consumption of this plant.?

Last but not least, I want to make sure I communicate a DISCLAIMER with you all:?

Everything we share on this page and in this newsletter is for EDUCATIONAL PURPOSES ONLY. We're here to share information only. If you plan on consuming cannabis as a way to treat your medical conditions, we highly advise you speak to your general practitioner or doctor, and they will guide you in the right direction.

Now that I’ve shared the disclaimer, let's get started on the education pathway.

So what you see in front of you today is a list of questions I currently have about cannabis. When I started coming up with this list, I asked myself...

“Kenny, what are the things you need to learn first before you can truly understand the science and the biology of cannabis?

Because without understanding these points, you're not setting the right foundations for yourself.”?

With that said, the next few articles and videos shared are dedicated to answering the following questions:

• What are the Common Misconceptions & Stigma?
• When, why and how did cannabis become illegal?
• What is the Marijuana Tax Act?
• What is the "War on Drugs" all about?
• What are the legalities of cannabis around the world?
• Recreational or medical? Which is better for society?
• What are the pros and cons of recreational cannabis?
• What are the pros and cons of medicinal cannabis?

Once these questions are answered, together with our network of doctors, researchers and cannabis experts, we'll then get into the science and the biology of cannabis itself. We'll be inviting select individuals to share their knowledge, expertise and findings when it comes to cannabis.

Yes, I know… It may seem boring in the beginning, but I personally believe it's the foundation of it all. If we can truly understand the foundation, everything else will be a lot easier and we’ll be able to get into the fun and engaging topics of cannabis.?

So that’s it for the start of the week!

This is the education pathway.?

This is what you can expect over the next few videos and newsletter and I hope you join us on this educational journey.

Take care guys! Have a wonderful week and I will catch you in the next piece of content.
