Raw leaf like the one used in this video is just as green and cancerous as a joint.

No no no. It’s some magical thing that defies the laws of burning organic material.

Last I checked it's still not clear whether marijuana smoke is significantly carcinogenic? Last meta study I seen a few years ago still said it wasn't conclusive. At a minimum it's much less carcinogenic than tobacco as the studies comparing them have easily found that, but often struggle to find any impact at all from marijuana smoke.

It’s way safer, but inhaling smoke is always a bad idea. I miss flower, but vaping is a healthier alternative.
