Tony Budden of 'Hemporium SA' - The Global Benefits of HEMP

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BxkDUBj3riY&feature=channel_video_title


Tony Budden of 'Hemporium' [http://www.hemporium.com/], a South African company that specializes in the multifarious products that can be made from hemp, talks about the environmental, nutritional, industrial, social and spiritual benefits of using hemp to provide us with almost all of our everyday products. These range from biodegradable plastics, non toxic detergents, composites that are stronger than steel yet lighter, finest quality paper, foods, textiles and many more.

He explains how the crop is a natural pest deterrent and requires no pesticides and very little fertilizer (natural please) and touches on the fascinating history of the plant revealing many important truths of our day. A must see for people who care about the planet and want to live as harmlessly as possible!

Love Always

Heading into Emerald Triangle later today.

Have camera. Will travel.

Going to see the "old man on the hill" (that makes him cry, so I won't say it to him). A raven sent him the recipe for CBD balance in strains to treat pain. A nurse at work may have cancer again, and she fell and cracked a vertebrae. I must help. You know that.

Two states, Washington and Colorado made it legal to grow and use hemp. Now they just have to deal with the Federal government. There was also another article recently on some hemp farms in the Colorado area and how they had difficulty with their business transactions with the banks who didn't want their business due to what their produce was.

Will the feds enforce own law?

On Election Day, Colorado and Washington became the first states to legalize marijuana for recreational use. Whether residents in those states ever get to light up legally remains to be seen.

Surely the federal government, which still considers marijuana as an illegal drug, will have something to say about the issue. Federal law would trump state law in this case, and someone will surely enforce federal law.

After all, remember the brouhaha when in 2007 North Dakota approved legislation allowing farmers to legally grow industrial hemp in the state? Hemp is a cousin of marijuana, but contains just a trace of tetrahydrocannabinol compared to marijuana. Yet farmers in this state thus far have been banned from growing hemp, which can be used to make a variety of products, including rope and clothing. Potential hemp farmers must be licensed by the state of North Dakota and approved by the federal government, and so far, the Drug Enforcement Agency refuses to approve any permits. So hemp farming is legal under North Dakota law, but banned under federal law.

We would expect the federal government to fully enforce the nation's laws against marijuana use for recreational purposes in Washington and Colorado as vigorously as it has fought the benign law that allowed hemp to be grown in North Dakota.
