while there are some studies that do not put marijuana smoking as high on the danger list [1] I am really curious that as legalization increases what will we see in the future. Then of course there is the loosely regulated area of vaping and who knows what is in some of those fluids. For the most part I am quite sure they have to be safer than smoking but I would love some hard regulation. 2005 study on marijuana smoke > https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1277837/ https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1277837/

You can always go for vaporizers. Are vaporizers actually ever used on tobaco? (i think they're sold "for tobaco use only" like bongs?)

  As a pipe smoker, I can tell that vaporisers work with synthetic liquids containing synthetical nicotine, nothing to do with harms and benefits of tobacco. You could use nicotine plasters with the same effect.

    I was talking about vaporizers where you put the thing that you usually burn in there, not some kind of liquid. Example: http://sales.magic-flight.com/original-maple-launch-box-kit/ http://sales.magic-flight.com/original-maple-launch-box-kit/

      Thank you, interesting boxes. I understood that whole assembly works like portable shisha, which is a good way to smoke certain tobaccos.

Yeah my buddy has been thinking about moving over to just vaporizing marijuana, opposed to smoking it in papers. Might as well remove what you can?

  I think it ultimately comes down to the vaporization tool. Older brands and vaporization techniques used by things like the Volcano or Silver Surfer, I would consider pretty safe. But once you get into the lower budget vaporizers, e-cigs, wax on metal coils, I think it gets more sketchy and its harder for the consumer to determine quality
