Hemp is 100% legal in all 50 United States, to purchase that is.
What I would like to see happen, is “legal” cannabis businesses band together as one, in all states where cannabis cannot be home-grown, and they just shutdown entirely, state-wide, until the law is changed.
States just want tax money from “halfway” legal cannabis, and businesses don’t care.
So if the entire state legal cannabis industry in the remaining 15 states out of the 41 or is it 42 that are now medically legal would stand up and shutdown their business until homegrow is allowed, imagine how insanely quick (in DAYS) the law would change!
But this industry doesn’t care about the consumer, they do not educate or hand out information about our (all mammals) endo-cannabinoid system, why having only thc in a 150:1 or 200:1 ratio of thc to almost non-existant cbd levels, is not enjoyable, and newly released research.
They are all just trying to get their money. Those businesses don’t want homegrow, because that would cut into their business. This is why I don’t like “legal cannabis”.
It’s only truly legal in 26 states, where it can be grown at home. Is it illegal to brew my own beer, anywhere even at home?
No? Then why is it any different for cannabis? Because it’s very easy to do and requires basically no prior skill.
I would love to grow hemp to make my own clothing, it can’t be that hard, maybe time consuming, but not impossible. It could replace
carpeting
toothbrush bristles
plastic-fiber air filters
any synthetic or cotton fabric
electronic device casings in all manner of objects, from speakers to mice to case fans to keyboards (and keyboard switches) use imagination
Matresses (somewhat getting there but it is prohibitably priced, and many times these products add synthetic foams)
Pillows blankets etc
Building insulation Hemp has better insulation than many other commonly used materials
“Plush” anything could be made with hemp
Speakers, there are already hemp-cone speakers from a company called
Tone Tubby
Headphones both casing, and speaker cone materials
If we all, as a human race, cared about the planet, we would have come together, just like we did with the Montreal act or whatever it was for refridgerant gases like R-22 and the banning of leaded gasoline.
Why is micro-plastics not the new leaded gas or ozone depletion?
We are having more storms, more loss of life due to them, and we just keep on like everythings still within normal average conditions, no changes to be made here.
This is delusional and 100% not reality. We are losing so much top soil on aerable land, that if it keeps up, estimates say we won’t be able to grow food as we do now, in 60 years.
Oh but I know, it won’t get to that point, we are a very smart human race, we’ll figure it out. I know we will, that’s obvious or we’ll all starve. But, will it tale 60 years to get our heads out of our asses and make changes?
The rainforests on Earth used to cover 14% of our land.
You wanna know what percent it is now?
Take a guess.
Is it 12%?
Is it 10%
Or perhaps it’s 8%.
Nope.
It"s less than that.
Rainforests on the planet now cover just 6% of the earth, due to deforestation. The worst part is, and this has been known for a long time, is that the soil in the rainforests are not very fertile. I don’t know why.
So the people deforesting the rainforest, plant some stupid plant, for the starches in the roots.
Its worse than that though. As the soil isn’t fertile, the crops don’t do well, and so the deforesters leave the area after just two years and cut down even more!
It’s ridiculous! Short-sighted human behavior is not positive for the future. The only thing we have going for us right now, is the world seed bank in the arctic to save us, and local micro-gardening techniques. Big Ag is on its way out.
