About three weeks ago, I got a chance to meet the Governor of Pennsylvania, Ed Rendell. I gave the Governor an autographed copy of my book about the history of the hemp industry in Pennsylvania, Hempstone Heritage.

The Governor is very much into alternative fuels. He would like to make Pennyslvania the Saudi Arabia of America when it comes to various forms of alternative energy, including biodiesels. I told the Governor that no plant on earth has more biomass per acre than certain strains of hemp thus making it the perfect crop for biodiesel. He said "Hey, we're all for that." He thanked me for the book and seemed geuinely appreciative. We shook hands.

I don't know if the Governor actually took the time to read my book or not and I don't know if he will push for hemp or not but the point is - we have this knowledge. It is up to those who know to teach others who do not know. We have to take it off the cannabis boards and get active and start to educate in our communities. I know that some of you already do this. For all of you, continue to do more of this. For those of you who don't - get educated and then start educating. If you already are educated on the issues then start spreading the word. We each do what we can in our own ways but the point is to each of us do what we can do.

The issues are too important. The stakes are too high. We need to get our lives in order and then press forward. Life is more important than TV and I hate to tell this to many of you but life is more important than the buzz too. The times are calling for sacrifice from this current generation and we better start doing it or the only real cahnge that we will notice is that things will go from very bad to drastically worse. The change starts with ourselves but we definitely want the world to change also.

The Living God of the Universe holds our fate in His hands and we need to trust Him. God will honor us if we honor Him. You will find that my posts have a common theme that I will constantly bring us back too and that is to honor and glorify God. Then and only then will things be right with us. You may not think that this has anything to do with biodiesel and hemp as a fuel source and I admit that I have strayed a bit but it does have complete relevance. Hemp should be legal again so that it can reach the fullest height of all it's positive potentials. We need to MAKE THIS HAPPEN. Get started and make it so!
Hempstone Reviewed by Hempstone on . Hemp for fuel?! Allright so i was thinkin about this today cuz i'm in school for automotive engineering in a class were we were talking about new fuel options and of course i was ripped so the first thing i thought about was weed! but seriously if they can make biofuel out of corn and soybean by grinding them down to the oil. Well i've touched corn plants before and there not even close to being oily like a nice mj plant so wouldn't the plant produce a lot more oil then corn or soy and therefore be a better Rating: 5
