For one, we wouldnt be producing as much greenhouse gases, which are caused by burning fossil fuels (coal, oil, gas), deforestation and the use of fertilizers. Although cutting down trees to use for paper produces carbon dioxide, hemp seems to thrive at high levels and also absorb it quickly and efficiently.
    The secondary effects would come later, when we eventually phase out the use of fossil fuels and replace them with hemp. Growing hemp for clothes and building housing would further decrease the carbon dioxide emissions.

    It is actually possible to produce all of our energy via hemp. Any CO2 released from burning hemp would be the same CO2 the plant had already taken from the environment - creating a 'closed carbon cycle'. This system of energy production would slow down, if not halt, global warming entirely. You can even run cars on hemp oil - admittedly, it would still release CO2, but only the amount that the plant had used up from the atmosphere, and with no other emissions such as sulphur.

    As I said earlier, cannabis hemp can be used to build houses. Not just houses though, we can also use it for insulation, furniture, and drywall. There is no more need to waste our land when hemp could easily replace our timber. This destruction reaches into the homes and pockets of every taxpayer, and meanwhile our children cannot play in the streams and the logging industry gets another needless government refund. Now it is time to turn to the future.

    Hemp is our solution.
    You have no idea what you are talking about, but hemp is nice; I will agree with you on that point.

    1) Cutting down trees does not release carbon dioxide. What you are probably referring to is the idea that trees take in the carbon dioxide we exhale, so when you cut down a tree, more carbon dioxide fumes are able to escape into the atmosphere. The act of cutting down a tree does not release carbon dioxide into the environment.

    2) Replacing fossil fuels with hemp oil is not efficient. Hemp oil would not be a reliable substitute for powering cars. And also, burning hemp DOES have other emissions other than just carbon dioxide.

    3) This is more of a question.. How does one use hemp to build a house? Or furniture?

    i dont use my real name because i dont want people to know how much time i spend talking about drugs over the internet. as if my life isnt enough of a waste already.
    Animals are something invented by plants to move seeds around. An extremely yang solution to a peculiar problem which they faced.

    you're absolutely right

    I respect what you're doing though man.
    It's what you want to do, so no one else matters.
    if you do get in any sort of trouble b/c of this name change, at least you know why.
    props.

    Replacing fossil fuels with hemp is only inefficient because we havent researced the possible uses enough. Its about time that our useless, inept goverment got their heads out of their arses and started thinking about us and the planet, rather than lining their own pockets. I agree that burning hemp DOES release other emissions, however they are seriously reduced by using hemp biodiesel. The ozone/smog is nearly halved compared to using diesel. Carbon Monoxide emissions are also halved. But the most important fact is that sulphur emissions are essetially ELIMINATED - and sulphur oxides and sulphates are the main cause for acid rain.

    A hemp crop can be grown without the use of herbicides or insecticides and produces up to four tonnes of material per acre per year. It has a stem consisting of an outer skin containing long, strong fibers and a hollow wood-like core or pith. Processing the stems results in two materials: hurds and fibers, both of which have properties that make them extremely useful in building construction.
    A variety of products, such as fiberboard, roofing tiles, wallboard, paneling, insulation and bricks, can be made from the compressed hurds. The fibers can also be used like straw in bale wall construction or with mud in a sort of modified cob style of building.
    Foundations can be made out of hemp hurds. A hemp plywood frame is filled with hemp hurds combined with lime, sand, plaster, some cement and enough water to dampen, and then let to set for a day and to harden for a week. Theres a brilliant example of the strength of hemp - a sixth century hemp reinforced bridge in France is testimony to the stone-like strength and durability of this material, which is known as ??hempcrete?.
    Hemp building boosters claim that hempcrete foundation walls are up to seven times stronger than those made of concrete, half as light and three times as elastic. This superior strength and flexibility means that hemp foundations are resistant to stress-induced cracking and breaking, even in earthquake-prone areas. The building material also is self-insulating; resistant to rotting, rodents and insects; and fire proof, waterproof and weather resistant.

    all we need is one bill that institutes a funding campaign for training cotton workers and other workers to work with hemp and manufacture it instead of their current profession. train the workers who would lose their jobs because of a massive switch and you can then make the transition from fossil fuels to bio fuels etc alot easier.


    I mean think about this, out govt controls the TV. Do you know how fucking easy it would be to switch?

    you have a massive broadcast system at your disposal but of course the govt want to keep it controlled and use it as a cheap and effective way to control massive amounts of people at once. i bet if they started introducing a program to educate people via a commercial about hemp and its uses.






    but synthetic materials are so much better because they cost alot more money to make and there is always going to be a limited supply of it. therefore the big greedy asshole gaped faggots who supposedly 'run' this country can make more money and supply us with a lower quality product for 10 times the price.






    fuck this STUPID world. no matter where u go you cant get away from the overwhelming stupidity and moronic ideals.

    god damn fuckers think that we can do a better job than nature. what a bunch of egotistical fucktards. sometimes i really hate scientists.
