The Hemp Manifesto: 101 Ways That Hemp Can Save Our World

I now refer to myself as "The Hempman" because I learned so much about this wonderful most versatile and horribly maligned plant. Now "The Hempman" has become a very vocal advocate for using the real potential this plant has to free our country from foreign financial domination by our own government making this plant illegal to grow in America. If you read this book you will become an advocate as well (if you have any brains) and love America and her people as I do. Before I bought a Mac computer I couldn't understand all the folks who raved about how they "love" their Mac, until I got one, now I understand. I use that as an analogy to how I now feel about cannabis hemp, before I couldn't understand, after reading up on cannabis hemp I understand.

This book is very informative. It made me want to start my own farm to help save the planet. :)

Sometimes it is only through the pithy insights of a pocket book or manifesto that the world can fully understand an issue. Such is certainly the case with this Cannabis Sativa, as most of the American people - especially the DEA - seem to have trouble understanding the practical value of industrial hemp _and_ the spiritual and medicinal value of its psychoactive sister, Marijuana. I say America, because the rest of the Western World is already catching on (hemp is being grown in Canada in and all over Europe now), whereas China, Japan, and many other eastern countries never forgotten this miracle crop. Yes, miracle crop. Hemp can be put to just about any use: It can be made into wood, paper, clothing, fiberglass, canvas, twine, rope, soap, shampoo, cosmetics, oils, paints, inks, putty, and coatings. It is also perhaps the most important food crop, as it stands supreme as the planet's single most nutritious source of protein and essential fatty acids. It can even be made into auto fuel!! (Visit Colorado's Rocky Mountain Institute's website for information on this long-known property of many carbohydrates.) Moreover, hemp treads much lighter on the planet, as it usually does not require pesticides or herbicides (indeed, it is used as natural herbicide); and its fast-growing roots and self-mulching leaves can even rejuvenate undernourished and eroding soils. In effect, by converting to hemp paper and woods products instead of felling old growth and dwindling indigenous rain forests, and furthermore by using hemp to retain soil composition in areas were erosion is advancing (hemp can grow just about anywhere), we could begin to restore declining ecosystems. Without understatement, hemp could lend a much-needed hand in saving the planet. This book was a real eye-opener. In terms of price, expediency and insight you can't go wrong.
