HEMP BENEFITS
FOR MILLENNIA, HUMANS HAVE USED PARTS OF THE HEMP PLANT FOR FOOD, TEXTILES, PAPER, FABRIC, OR EVEN CONSTRUCTION. MODERN PROCESSING TECHNOLOGIES MAKE IT POSSIBLE TO CREATE HEMP BASED ALTERNATIVES TO FUEL, PLASTIC, & OTHER MINERAL OIL PRODUCTS, WHICH CAN HELP THE WORLD REDUCE ITS RELIANCE ON HEAVILY POLLUTING FOSSIL FUELS.
THE PLANT IS A RENEWABLE RESOURCE THAT CAN BE PRODUCED DOMESTICALLY. IT IS A PROLIFIC CROP (GROWING 50 TIMES FASTER THAN COMMERCIAL TIMBER), NATURALLY DISEASE RESISTANT, ONCE ESTABLISHED IT IS HIGHLY COMPETITIVE AGAINST INVASIVE SPECIES (OTHER "WEEDS"), THRIVES IN MOST CLIMATES & IT REGENERATES THE SOIL IN WHICH IT GROWS.
THE PLANT WAS PROHIBITED IN THE 1930S ALONGSIDE ITS HIGHER-THC “ILLICIT COUSIN”. AS IT PROGRESSIVELY RETURNS TO GRACE, HEMP HAS THE POTENTIAL TO KICK START A NEW GREEN INDUSTRIAL & MANUFACTURING REVOLUTION AS WELL AS TO SUPPORT STRUGGLING RURAL ECONOMIES.
