More baby boomers are smoking pot. A new study reveals marijuana use is on the rise among older adults in the U.S. Researchers at the University of Massachusetts Medical School say the findings appear to reflect changing attitudes toward cannabis across the country. Men ages 60 to 64 reported the highest rates with more than 12 percent saying they used the drug in the past month. There was less change in use among women. The study noted increased marijuana use by older adults both in states where it’s legal and where it’s not.
