Marijuana: Big Business that's about to Get Bigger Five years ago, only 45% of California voters approved the recreational use of marijuana, but recent polls have produced a consensus that it's inevitable -- perhaps as soon as next year . It's already a multi-billion dollar industry in this state, and multiple interests are waiting to get in on the action. That now includes growers in what's called the Emerald Triangle — Mendocino, Humboldt and Trinity Counties. In the past, they've feared that legalization would hurt their business but, as we hear, that's changed.
