I agree with your position on industrial hemp cultivation. Anything that can be done to educate the general public away from their misconceptions about this plant will go a long way to healing the earth and the creatures that live upon it.

great vid - true pentast, it's a bad idea to use food crops for fuel - but, people are beginning to figure that out, with food costs beginning to rise super fast.

I'm glad you liked the vid and I'm glad that people are starting to connect some dots. On a moral/ethical level it's a shame that economics is the baseline catalyst for change in this matter but early on, any movement is good movement.

Grow HEMP! Ethanol can be derived from cannabis, the trees are saved, the air is clean, the soil is perfect, the wildlife is cared for, it needs NO pesticides. It replaces OIL. Go on, run from the solution...and while your at it, run from the cure. I can think of 75,ooo reasons to use a herb that has a 10000 year GOOD, GLOBAL history. All most can think of is smoking it causes axe murderers. Who told you that??? Oh ya, dupont. Whos among those behind all this bio-fuel, wood burning, no food BS??

@withoutmercyuk There's still a problem - it's there with anything that would be grown for energy - it takes up land needed to grow food.

We need courageous and visionary leaders to guide development in this direction. If we can put a man on the moon and an a-bomb on Japan, we should be able to put a car on the road that doesn't help starve out the third world.
