Is it the chemical makeup of nicotine vs THC/CBD? Given the fact they are both smoked, and burnt plant matter are both inhaled in the lungs, it is said that burnt tobacco smoke is more carcinogenic than cannabis smoke. Also, cannabis is used medicinally and therapeutically whereas tobacco is not.
Edit: I am aware that cannabis is better used medicinally as a tincture or in a non-smoked method (i.e. edibles). That would be the safest method of consumption.

There’s not a lot of research on cannabis and some of the research that’s out there indicates that it might also cause lung cancer. So the real answer is *we don’t know* or, more likely, *it may be the same, it may be different, there’s not enough data to know*
I try to stick to a tincture since I work around pesticides and my lung cancer risk is already high
