World Health Organization Calls to Reclassify Marijuana According to 'Forbes,' the <br />World Health Organization (WHO) The WHO wants to reassign whole-plant marijuana and resin from the Schedule IV category to a Schedule I. The organization would also like other THC related items to be removed from a 1971 drug treaty and added to Schedule I. If the changes are adopted, it would serve as an admission by world governments that they were wrong about marijuana. It would also suggest <br />that there are proven <br />therapeutic benefits. Michael Krawitz, U.S. Air Force Veteran and legalization advocate, via 'Forbes' Potential changes would <br />have no direct effect on the <br />U.S. government's own classifications. But it would serve <br />as a stepping stone <br />for global change. Michael Krawitz, U.S. Air Force Veteran and legalization advocate, via 'Forbes'
