HEMP REVOLUTION

Most plastics can only be recycled a maximum of one or two times

so the only real way to stop plastic waste is to prevent plastic production.

​

Hemp can be used to produce bio ethanol to provide enough hydrocarbons

to synthesise gasoline and kerosene to sustain carbon neutral vehicle use

but a better and less wasteful (of arable land) solution might be to create a vast

excess of renewable electricity from various sources and use it to create Green

Hydrogen which can be made from a reaction with Water, Aluminium, Gallium

and Electricity, to be used not only as a highly energy dense vehicle fuel but

also as a superior large scale energy storage solution compared to batteries.

​

It must surely be possible with current technologies to make vehicles from

high proportions of recycled metals, Hemp polymer plastics and Hemp fibre

that run on Hemp derived fuel or Hydrogen that will have a fraction of the

environmental impact of the current battery and plastic filled electric vehicles.

​

Hemp biomass can produce enough charcoal by a process called pyrolosys

to fuel carbon neutral, charcoal power stations from around 7% of arable land (in the USA)

ending our dependence fossil fuel and reducing the need for nuclear generated electricity.

​

Solar power does indeed seem to offer a means to monetise a sunrise and provide sustainable electricity, but solar panels (and wind turbines) have to be produced from mined, transported minerals, materials and energy intensive processes then further transported to a suitable place for installation and connection then maintained and eventually replaced and disposed of, whereas a localised Hemp charcoal fuelled power station could be fed by Hemp that was harvested, transported and processed by machines powered by Hemp derived fuels thereby producing genuinely sustainable, carbon neutral electricity while simultaneously improving the air quality, soil quality and providing many other carbon neutral resources.

​

While wind turbines and solar panels can certainly contribute to reducing CO2 and other emissions and in some cases are up to 95% recyclable, they can't improve air quality and have been proven to have many detrimental effects for local human and animal populations as well as being energy and material intensive to produce and install when compared to a field of Hemp that was sown, reaped and processed by machines powered by renewable fuels.

​

Hemp can be planted to decontaminate ground that has been poisoned by various

large and small scale mining, industrial and agricultural "business ventures."

​

Hemp has great potential to overgrow invasive non-useful weeds while simultaneously improving the soil quality, reducing the severity of flooding if planted around river systems, reducing soil erosion and providing seeds and other resources for many

wild animals.

​

Hemp seed has unique nutritional properties

that have been proven to be highly beneficial for all aspects of Human health.

​

Hemp can produce a massive amount of its super food seeds, around half of the crop by weight is possible, from a crop that can be grown almost anywhere in the world

with two crops per season possible in many regions without any soil degradation and

without any poisonous agricultural chemicals.

​

How useful is Hemp? Lets look round a house to find out!

The structure of the house could be made from Hempcrete and Hemp wood,

Hempcrete also absorbs CO2 as it ages. The walls and roof could be insulated

with Hemp fibre and their interiors could be Hemp wood or papered with Hemp

paper and Hemp based adhesives or painted with paint made with Hemp terepenes.

The carpets and other floor coverings could be made from Hemp, the furniture could be made from Hemp wood and cushioned with Hemp fibre filled Hemp fabric cushions and

mattresses, the curtains could be made from Hemp fibre and the blinds from Hemp

wood. Anything made from Cotton or Flax (Linen) could be replaced by Hemp and

anything plastic could potentially be replaced with Hemp polymer plastics including

synthetic fabrics. The house could be heated and lit with electricity from Hemp 

powered charcoal power stations and it should be possible to make pellets and

briquettes for stoves from Hemp byproducts. The fabric and paper towels in the

kitchen, bathroom etc could be made from Hemp, a high proportion of the foods

in the kitchen could be made from Hemp seed, soaps and detergents can be made

with Hemp extracts, all letters, leaflets, newspapers etc in the post and all parcel

packaging could be made from Hemp paper and Hemp cardboard.

​

It's a well known fact, in the field of Hemp knowledge at least, that a field of Hemp

can produce quadruple the amount of paper as an equivalent area of tree plantation.

​

While researching various ideas for environmental sustainability I found some very informative books about Hemp and can see the carefully organised and formless multi national mainstream media effort of non-representation for Hemp, as though the worlds most useful plant doesn't even exist while any mainstream media coverage of Ecological projects and ideas amounts to nothing more than random and trend based bulletins of various

relatively tiny efforts when compared to the real effectiveness that a

global Hemp industrial revolution can achieve.

​

While the world's political leaders, the accompanying hoards of fossil fuel corporation

lobbyists and the mainstream media seem to think that their predictions about

trying to limit future global climate warming to two point this or one point that will

work, the truth is that a global Hemp industrial revolution would be so effective 

as to allow the Human race to actually reverse the effects of our climate damage

and even with the potential to fine tune the level of CO2 in Earth's atmosphere.

​

The amount of CO2 in the Earth's atmosphere could possibly be significantly higher

without causing the Human, Animal and Plant life on Earth to be subjected to the

danger of extinction through its direct effects but if it eventually warms the climate

of our planet enough to induce a progressively increasing massive methane and carbon dioxide deposit release event from the methane deposits in ocean sediments and the methane and carbon dioxide deposits in Permafrost regions, or a series of globally

interacting events then the effects could be even greater than many scientific predictions

and maybe even severe enough to eradicate most living organisms on the planet if the oxidative capacity of the Earth's atmosphere to neutralise toxic gasses, particles and

other harmful elements is subject to irreversible harm.

​

The oceans, seas and the rivers that flow into them need to be properly protected from 

all aspects of pollution for many reasons and also because the worlds oceans absorb a colossal amount of carbon dioxide through a process called bio-sequestation when phytoplankton photosynthesise to grow, fix carbon dioxide with calcium to form calcium carbonate for their skeletons then sink to the bottom of the ocean, are compressed and

form vast amounts of Limestone and Chalk, as seen in so many places around our planet.

​

Hemp and Marijuana have often been made synonymous as meaning the same plant 

with over eighty years of anti Marijuana propaganda that was also intended to be

anti Hemp propaganda in the name of short term business protectionism

and at the great expense of our planet so I'll include a few thoughts and

paragraphs about Marijuana with good intention and common sense in mind.

​

To be sincere in its and my intentions of effecting as much positive change as possible 

to the future of every person, animal and every other aspect of our living environment

then my website must try to simultaneously maximise the promotion of innovative 

beneficial ideas about Hemp, political and economic solutions while trying to minimise

the potential harm that could find those who seek to use intoxicating substances either 

for their recreational or for medicinal effects if those two reasons can be said to be any

different for anyone who claims to seek medicinal stress reduction 

and stress is the root cause of so many health problems.

​

None of my website content or poetry are intended to encourage anyone to try

non medicinal or illegal Marijuana as it's my observation that time spent getting

intoxicated is time that could be better spent reading, thinking and writing

or outdoors but the subject of Marijuana must be dealt with in a rational

way so as not to be detrimental to starting a Hemp industrial revolution.

​

Right from the very first words spoke or written about the global "war on drugs" 

those words have formed part of what has been a war of fraudulent misrepresentation 

on a grand scale when it was a war on some harmful, potentially dangerous and addictive 

substances and not some other ones by omitting Alcohol, Tobacco and many pharmaceutical products from a fake war that can never be genuine unless this double standard is eliminated

by a shift in either direction towards truthful consistency. A consistency in all interactions involving substances, people and the potential for substances and their associated legislation to be utilised by any nation state as a means of the selective oppression of its population meaning that in its current state, the war on drugs has only three real reasons for its existence and those reasons are firstly that it is a war of business protectionism, secondly that it is a war to fraudulently siphon money from a people's democracy and thirdly and most importantly it is a war to diminish or remove your Human Right not to be subjected to unjust state imposed surveillance, discrimination, asset forfeiture and life prospect reduction.

​

The most important truth to remember about all wars and why every effort must be made to avoid them is that they're harmful to everyone and everything living in the global environment except the few people making money and furthering their political causes from the business of linking any conflicting ideologies or similar reciprocal revenge cycles with both the direct and indirect financial and political exploitation of any form of conflict. The only real victory in any war is a hollow one that can only be measured by comparing who has lost less than their perceived enemy.

​

Deception of your perception by any highly intelligent person or by an organisation

in the form of more sophisticated and organised propaganda really works by using 

an assortment of objective and subjective depictions to induce your mind to think

that you're more intelligent than the deceiver, thereby creating the false sense of

being safe or sure by way of sufficient knowledge when the opposite is the truth.

​

The only thought that's ever safe to assume is the truth that without direct, immediate

experience and observation of something, you will never have a proper knowledge of

it and will certainly have insufficient knowledge to have opinions and behaviour that

will effect your fellow people's existence and knowledge, and therefor their inherent

Human Right to have a truthful state of mind and existence.

​

The main reason that motivates me to encourage anyone reading to develop a strong psychological independence from the need to be intoxicated with any substance, including Alcohol, is an observation of how a malevolent person can try and use your intoxication as a means to gain an advantage of superior psychological stability and alertness for various motives including coercion towards further intoxication or to introduce an unknown spiked substance to increase their advantage. A highly intelligent, evil individual or persons will use various false mannerisms, pretend to take the same substances or have a weaker substitute, regularly normalise the taking of some particular substance or other in conversation and will have some imaginary intoxication anecdotes, maybe even with a "commode incident story"

to ease the movement of your perception from reality and into a cleverly constructed illusion. The most effective substance coercion will most likely only be attempted if you have already pre-drugged yourself with enough Alcohol and will usually be in the form of someone or one of their friends having a spare bit or their last bit of some powder or pill or other that they will politely and subtly hint at sharing, as this stratagem, like all forms of effective coercion depends on you thinking that you're acting of your own free will or with the influence of a little temptation and is usually facilitated by a friend's or relative's "unknown" acquaintance to dispel any personal accountability. Please remember this paragraph and the next couple as essential and wise, life preserving and improving, street survival knowledge.

​

My interactions with many people who have used hard drugs over a timescale of many years

have led me to the observation, and therefor the realisation that illegal substances are favoured as a means for the average or common psychopath to engage in forms of controlling or soft poisoning behaviour that will either be beyond the victims realisation of events, or much less likely to be reported due to the drug prohibition laws that target the personal use and possession of small amounts of intoxicating substances. The other most likely soft poisoning method that could be tried by a secret psychopath operating outside of the ken of your knowledge could be to utilise any substance that does not have an instant harmful effect but will cause damage to various parts of the body with indirect or delayed effects with a powerful cumulative or carcinogenic effect, so its wise to make a good effort to be observant both in real time and of recollections of the events and people around you that can fill or even try to overcrowd the memory, particularly when trying to focus the recollection on the smaller details over a large timescale and number of events.

​

To properly and thoroughly write about all aspects of Hemp it's also necessary to write

about Marijuana and to write about Marijuana with sufficient insight then it's necessary 

to write about all intoxicating substances in general, including Alcohol which has an equal or worse addictive, impairing and incapacitating capacity as any other drug, and to also take the time to examine all aspects of their use or misuse. Unfortunately there are endless methods and motives for someone to utilise or even weaponize intoxicating substances against you to increase the progress of their crime, which as well as including the usual motives of financial exploitation or for sexual coercion or attack, could also be to create a one sided narrative to attack your credibility of character or for the even more sinister motive of eliminating you from your one and only life with a staged overdose, which could be an effective way for an evil person to negate forensic evidence implication, as long as their victim could be encouraged to self administer their own lethal dose. Another way that an evil person could use prohibition against you would be to inform or "Rat" on you or even on their criminal contacts on your behalf without you knowing that unjust retribution was going to be visited upon you. Someone could also use the social stigma of various substances to create division and disadvantage for you within your family, social life or at your place of work. The prohibition of personal use and possession of most intoxicating substances is amplifying the problems that they cause by allowing professional criminals to utilise a combination of State retribution fear, media propagated social stigma, intimidation, violence, abundant cash profits and unregulated substance supply and strength to acquire and control their 'customers' from a young age.

No Nation State should be squandering vast amounts of the resources that should be better used to protect the people in any society, whether by ignorantly or wilfully targeting the wrong people, who should be given the most humane medical and compassionate support in accordance with our most basic Human Right to be free from all forms of avoidable persecution and suffering, e.g not decided by someone somewhere else with

different and possibly insufficient or biased knowledge and its intentions.

​

Marijuana/Cannabis is the dried flowers of a female Hemp plant that has been bred and grown specifically to have stronger intoxicating effects and is regularly represented

as the main or only reason for Hemp to be subjected to oppressive legislation

when Hemp has around 25,000 useful and ecologically beneficial applications

that probably account for over 99% of it's usefulness.

​

The only possible way that the value of a persons life can be claimed and represented by the media as being worth more or less media coverage because they perished from the effects of using an illegal substance and not a legal one, or for example if they died this way or that that way or from a motorcycle or horse riding accident, would be like giving every person's life a propaganda points value which, if you apply it to all of the events represented in all forms of the media, can give you an interesting change of perception.

​

The first and maybe the only sign that someone is utilising and weaponizing substances against you might be when you are suddenly confronted by enraged relatives or maybe when your friends change how they are interacting with you or when you are demoted of fired due to exaggerated reasons or when you are on the receiving end of serious aggression from your local branch of organised crime or when the effects of your chosen substance are causing unexpectedly stronger intoxicating or overdosing "side effects."

​

If you have the opinion that all intoxicating substances should be avoided as without

exception they will all debilitate your physical health and your psychological ability to properly regard your thoughts, actions, personal safety and well-being then it's a wise

intention as long as it's without double standards which means without having Alcohol.

​

The only way that I can recommend that you should avoid drugs or "Drugs" without double standards would be to advise that you avoid Alcohol as much as you should avoid any

other drug like, for example an Organic and ethically traded Cocaine cola.

​

If you want to be against drugs then do it properly by being against Alcohol and by being

against any government, education system, media and any other business interests 

that think it's good or even acceptable to deceive anyone including young people and

even children by representing Alcohol as any different or less worse than any other

addictive, violence causing, health destroying, Brain cell killing, poisonous trash drug.

​

Everyone should take the time to consider whether an ideology has the potential to be capable of having greater mind altering effects than any physical substance and also

if it's more dangerous due to its potential to permanently affect or even intoxicate the

Human mind, but believing that to be true or not true would, like any belief,

limit the mind's ability to properly and clearly think beyond that belief.

​

It's a wise idea to seek rational and useful ideas in all literature and ideologies

whilst not letting the influence of any one ideology limit your mind's ability to

synthesise the creative thoughts needed to further expand Human intelligence.

​

To see something from all possible perspectives, simultaneously,

without an opinion clouding your perception, is to see the truth.

​

The truth is that nothing will help your life to progress towards many worthwhile objectives more than the freedom from all regular habits including Alcohol, non medicinal Marijuana, gambling and even habitual thought and sustaining the realisation

that any routine habit is restrictive of your mind and therefore your life, even gambling

will reduce your perceived value of yourself (which should not be measured in monetary terms) by influencing your conscious and subconscious thoughts towards thinking that one could be a better person if only I could win this much or that much money when the reality is that it's better not to waste thoughts, energy, time or money with such superficial things.

​

Medical Marijuana from milder varieties of plant with at least 10% CBD and less than 10% THC should be available to buy or grow, subject to a medical permit, by any adult over 21 years old and through a Doctors prescription and dispensary for anyone younger than 21, in any nation, for any medical reason including all pain relief, stress relief and for the easing of restful sleep.

​

Hemp flowers with less than 5% THC and at least 5% CBD should be available as a

herbal remedy for any adult over 21 years to exercise their Human Right to have 

access to all natural plant medicines, should not be subject to legislation much

different to Alcohol and should only be classed as Hemp flowers, not Marijuana.

​

Medical patients of any age with a serious illness, injury, prolonged or chronic pain or

debilitating medical condition should not be prohibited from having

prescribed access to medical Marijuana of any strength.

​

It would not be beneficial for many people in any society to have a ubiquitous availability of extremely strong (30% THC!) varieties of Marijuana for regular casual, social recreational use but how can its prohibition be justified by any nation that allows the production and sale of Alcohol which can hardly be claimed to be the least bit beneficial for anyone and should also have a minimum age limit of 21 years. Recreational Marijuana could earn billions in taxes for any nation and possibly reduce the harm caused by Alcohol and Tobacco if Weed smoking was discouraged in favour of vaporisers, snacks, drinks and its strength was regulated to a maximum of around 15% THC and a minimum of around 5% CBD with a further 10%

 incremental tax increase for every 1% over a strength of 10% THC and a simultaneous 10% incremental tax increase for every 1% under a 10% CBD content unless the CBD content is equal to or grater than the THC strength to reduce any potentially detrimental effects.

​

My qualification to write about Marijuana grew from visiting Amsterdam four times since 2013 and experiencing the Dutch Coffeeshop system by way of immediate firsthand experience so

my thoughts and observations are a real, credible and relevant source of knowledge.

​

Coffeeshops are not an ideal solution for controlling the use of any Marijuana due to

passive smoking exposure for employees, excessive smoking by patrons, no standardised Marijuana strength information, no weed strength or opening restrictions earlier in the

day and if coffeeshops are perceived as being cool then they might encourage a lax attitude where customers also purchase for or pass on strong Marijuana to young or underage people

which would still be "less worse" than an unregulated black market that is currently selling

an assortment of unregulated substances to young, underage or vulnerable people.

​

Marijuana should not be glamorised and it should not be demonised,

it should be seen for what it is and that is a plant with many valuable

medicinal properties that also happens to have some intoxicating effects. 

​

Professional dispensaries are the only rational way to control the use of stronger Marijuana

and possibly dispensaries with an on premises license only for vaporising, snacks

and drinks plus anyone with a medical permit should be entitled to grow

up to four mild strength medicinal outdoor plants per crop

or two mild strength indoor plants per crop. 

​

Hemp is so useful and important that to restrict such a versatile resource by any more than a 5% maximum THC content on the grounds that a minority of people might use some relatively weak Marijuana is preposterous and wasteful when futile crop destruction legislation is deemed acceptable and beneficial for more than 1% more than 0.3% and even 0.1% THC.

Beneficial for who?

​

One of the effects of the 0.3% or even the 1% industrial Hemp THC limit

is that it greatly restricts the agricultural Hemp industry's ability to use and develop many

cultivars (varieties) of Hemp that would be more suitable for a wider range of environmental

conditions thereby reducing the whole industry's ability to maximise crop yield.

​

Hemp is a phytoremediation crop, meaning that it improves the soil for other crops

when grown in crop rotation agriculture, which would also avoid the problems caused

by monoculture agricultural practices while simultaneously maximising food production

from arable land, thereby creating the capacity to replace destructive, wasteful and 

polluting animal farming with a combination of organic crop farming and re-wilding

projects, not only is industrial Hemp a valuable cash crop that grows in around

120 days but it also absorbs 18 tonnes of Co2 per hectare.

​

If the legislation for growing Hemp in any nation were to be weighted 

truthfully in proportion to Hemp's vast usefulness versus any potentially

negative effects of Marijuana then it should be subject to minimal if any 

restrictive legislation, let alone the completely absurd and ridiculously

low 0.0001% THC limit for consumer products in the United Kingdom.

​

Where any THC content is deemed as undesirable in a product

then it should simply be taxed out of existence.

​

When the full potential of Hemp can be realised then there will be no more plastic pollution, no more environmental destruction, genuinely carbon neutral biomass fuels,

plentiful Hemp based foods, improved climate stability, improved arable land, improved

air quality and a permanently sustainable economy from the Hemp industrial revolution.

​

When compared to Hemp, many of the current ecologically sound and however well meaning "green smoke screen" projects will not be able to solve all the problems including 

plastic pollution, environmental destruction, economic recessions, sufficient carbon capture,

preventing soil erosion and ending the use of dangerous pesticides and herbicides.

​

If Hemp is not utilised to its full potential of carbon capture, environmental stabilisation,

product, food and energy production then we can expect a continuing deterioration

of our environment's ability to sustain the global population to the extent that we will have many food and water shortages, extreme weather, recurring economic recessions and

epidemics, poisonous air quality and where travel for leisure will be impossible so the 

Hemp industrial revolution is a means of life or death for many people,

a means of prosperity or poverty for many more and a means of

civilised Liberty for all people.

​

Hemp is the Liberator of our future Human race! 

Without Hemp the future that's being determined by the greedy, ignorant and deluded 

will only lead to an ecological, economic, social and climate breakdown

that would result in any survivors (if they're lucky) having to resort to

extremely frugal communism.

​

The most realistically achievable way to protect the remainder of our planet's environment

from profit driven destruction will be to make destructive and polluting industries too

expensive to sustain their existence while simultaneously giving environmentally

beneficial industries the means and potential to be highly profitable businesses.

The traditional capitalist business practice of pursuing profit at any other expense

should not be considered as a suitable, rational or even sane progression 

towards a sustainable Human future as capital will always seek to

take over democratic nations in the blind pursuit of profit.

​

From the long term business perspective of a wise enough investor or profiteer with enough foresight to see past the next decade or three, who should be taking enough notice of

the ever increasing, enthusiastic popularity and credible scientific evidence in favour of urgent environmental protection, I'd have to ask myself: Can Hemp or Marijuana save my profits, lifestyle and future from climate change, resource depletion, increasing energy costs, righteous moral legislation, fake Eco-capitalism or even something that could be likened to Eco-communism? From the perspective of many corporate businesses; Eco-communism is probably not an unreasonable or exaggerated term for environmentally necessitated, drastic and possibly misguided emergency curtailments of how the human

race can live and if or how it will be possible for many businesses to operate with a slim

profit margin or to even exist so yes it's true that Hemp can at least save many aspects

of our society from many finite resource depletion and

environmental pollution induced problems.

​

The traditional socialist or communist ideology of giving a people's state the 

ownership and control of all production, industry and economic matters has

the potential to slow down or reverse many environmental protection efforts

by way of amplifying misguided, ignorant, incompetent or corrupt excessive

state control to a similar extent as any other political system of government

but possibly without the democratic (although it is considered to be a version of

a democracy or dictatorship, depending on perspective) means to effect a more

timely change towards our sustainable existence than what properly regulated

capitalism would be capable of achieving thereby necessitating the creation of

some sort of global environmental business sustainability credibility rating

system for any form of international product trade or currency exchange

transaction, based only on accountable truth and wisdom and on which to

approve all use of a global reserve currency.

​

Successful environmental protection legislation on a global scale can only exist if

all business practice everywhere can be subject to laws preventing the resource

exploiting Corrupt Racketeer Influenced Organisations from operating and their

money and assets are seized as illegal Sustainability Attrition Producing Proceeds

or SAP money which should be seen no differently to the illegal drug money

currently made by any other cartel or mafia, or at the very least destructive profits

should be subjected to a Compulsory Sustainable Business Re-investment Order to be effective enough to avert complete environmental and climate depletion. 

​

Social justice is a very good idea in principal but for it to have any real and positive effects on a society other than the temporary alleviating of some hardships for some of the population

and also the negative effect of accelerating Human resource consumption then it would 

have to be applied in the form of rational and environmentally sustainable social justice.

​

Whether everyone can see the only three real choices for our future or not they can't be changed by denial, the first choice is one of ignorance leading to ever reducing resources from a deteriorating environment which will eventually necessitate futile global emergency environmental protection measures, the second choice is one of more urgent emergency environmental protection measures which also might already be too little too late to be effective enough to resurrect our future so the third and most realistically possible way of saving our future would be to grow our way out of the problems by covering the world with Hemp and rapidly industrialising Hemp to its full and vast potential thereby saving us from a totally unnecessary deterioration of our environment and our civil liberties.

​

The pursuit of endless economic growth and profits from environmental exploitation

is the pursuit of Human extinction, a Hemp industrial revolution has the potential 

to create a rational state of sustainable economic and environmental equilibrium

that will be sufficiently effective to save our future Human race.

​

However you want to measure, interpret or estimate our planet's finite "exploitable"

resources, they will finally be finite and no amount or type of elaborate media

propaganda will stop the dwindling of resources, or the dwindling of future Human

survival prospect percentage points, towards an unknown point of no return.

​

If being Human means, as it should mean, that we have great intelligence, moral capacity, wisdom and intuition then our failure to prevent the destruction of our world for greed and consumerism would reduce us in the natural order to below the so called dumb beasts

that we kill for food or through environmental destruction, meaning that the apparently mighty political leaders and wealthiest entrepreneurs should have known better and

were of less use to our sustainable existence than a Bumble Bee or even a Greenfly

and can either be remembered for helping to sustain our existence with Hemp

and rational actions or remembered by no-one when we're all extinct.

​

A rational course of action to protect any nation and its environment 

from excessive profiteer racketeering would be to eliminate

all of its offshore held currencies and assets to 

reduce the influences of blind greed.

​

A better solution would be to create new currencies backed by Hemp, ecological preservation, carbon etc instead of the traditional gold backed currencies that create greed and destruction for a mineral in the ground or fiat currencies that can cause problems with devaluation, a Hemp coin, eco-coin or carbon coin or credit would have potential to stop

environmental destruction and be more stable.

​

A Hemp backed dollar would work as a global reserve currency by giving 

the power of currency creation to any nation state, business entity, collective

and individual persons able to meet a Hemp standard for growing and

harvesting a quota of organic Hemp for trading via a Hemp exchange thereby creating organically grown dollars.

​

A Hemp Exchange Monetary and Production System (HEMPS) could work by having policies of proportionate paid membership for accessing either a state owned Hemp exchange or private Hemp exchange company, a transaction tax for trading and a currency creation tax for the Hemp dollars that were grown so that governments, businesses and people can still make money from all stages and aspects of production but it must be sustainable money to save our planet.

​

A dollar backed by Hemp or at least linked to Hemp subsidies could be the best ecologically sound global currency solution due to the Hemp plant having around 25,000 genuinely useful applications to industrialise and monetise and the biomass growth rate to fuel carbon neutral power stations from a relatively small fraction of arable land thereby growing a sustainable

Hemp industrial revolution.

​

A good way to accelerate environmental preservation and improve the potential for the Human race to have a sustainable future would be to have currency expiry rates

where a small percentage of any currency will expire if it isn't spent on

environmentally sustainable foods, products or investments.

​

Ecological currency expiry could easily be applied at 1 - 5% for most of the world's population

and progressively increase for the minority of the population who earn enough to be able

to afford a higher percentage with very high percentages being applied to offshore held currencies including all fiat currencies, Gold, SDRs and any other equivalent currency value held in assets until they're eliminated, thereby giving a nation a

means of regaining the economic and political control currently held offshore

that is detrimental to all environmental protection efforts.

 

For Ecological currency expiry to work effectively on a global scale 

and not create new problems or turmoil in the global financial markets

then it would need to be applied consistently by percentage of a globally

traded currency in existence by way of voluntary agreements or by making

Ecological currency expiry rates an integral part of international trade deals.

​

The ability to store currency reserves offshore also needs to be eliminated by legislation

that would require any individual person or business entity to pay proportionate taxes

on any currency leaving a nation and to hold all their currency reserves within the

tax jurisdiction of another ethically accountable and independent nation state.

​

The elite profiteers who have economic and political influence, their own family's and their descendants are not offshore from our planet so they need to be investing in Hemp as a sound long term business strategy leading to stable profits and a stable environment.

​

Combined with ecological currency expiry, the movement, use and existence of any capital that is linked to environmental destruction or pollution will need to be totally eliminated by legislation that covers all forms of currency and assets including SDRs and virtual currencies.

​

Ecological currency expiry could be maintained in perpetuity as a means of phasing out the use of obsolete currencies and also as a way of maintaining a stable value for a Hemp dollar

while simultaneously encouraging the growth of a global Hemp industrial revolution.

​

To democratise emissions responsibility; a carbon dioxide limit for each individual person could be applied by way of a carbon credit accounting system with an annual quota of non transferable and non expiring carbon credits that would be required to purchase emission intensive foods, products, vehicles or transportation, independent of all currencies.

​

Profiteers is almost too benign a word but means all business profiteers

from the largest and richest few all the way down to the equally greedy smaller scale destructive plunderers of our environment for profit. We all need to do our bit for saving the world for future generations instead of just blaming the rich and powerful or denying that we need to stop and prevent all forms of futile inter Human infighting, enough of us need to come to our rational, reasonable and compassionate senses and realise that we're all part of a profit pyramid and unless we change every aspect of our behaviour regarding what we buy,

what we eat, how we vote and how we treat our fellow Humans, Animals and our Planet then we will continue on our current course of fate towards extinction.

​

The profiteers need to use their media ownership, control and connections 

to start honestly and accurately representing the possibilities for preventing

the further destruction of our environment and climate by every means possible

and they need to stop funding the hordes of political lobbying companies who

should be seen as an undue influence on any democracy or seen as lobbying

corruption that will help to enable the destruction of their own descendants along

with consigning the whole of the human race and all other forms of life on Earth to

a so needlessly futile mass extinction event or series of interacting events. 

​

Apathy, ignorance, greed, malice and complacence can form our own

personal contributions to environmental destruction, heinous

animal cruelty, people impoverished and many other evils.

​

There are no amount of traditional political hereditary entitlements or money funded access to political power anywhere on Earth that will not hamper our efforts to control and reverse environmental destruction before critical climate disruption kills us all.

​

Inherent in Human behaviour there are many psychological characteristics that can

cause significant mind altering effects in any persons acquiring power, therefore a solution would be for political systems and media networks of the future to be mostly automated and professionalised to eliminate undue influence or lobbying corruption and automate the necessary and urgent progress into political systems and the media networks with open source software solutions combined with similar crowd funded and proportionate citizen organisations or assemblies in all nations but never with independent artificial intelligence

to ensure the preservation and worldwide expansion of the Human Rights to

safety, liberty and knowledge.

​

All democratic people's nations should have a limit on the total annual amount of donations that any political party can receive by percentage relative to its domestic economy, overseen by a citizen volunteer assembly coordinated accountability process while also prohibiting all foreign or offshore donations, corporate personhood and statehood rights, secret and corporate courts and any other form of investor state dispute settlement mechanism as

an attempted subversion of democracy.

​

If international trade deals are to be sought or established by any nation or business

entity in the interests of minimising bureaucratic inefficiencies then they should be

used as an opportunity to leverage the creation and improvement of

Human and Animal rights as well as environmental preservation,

to a globally consistent ethical business standard.

​

Any nation claiming to be a democracy, which means any nation governed by its people

and for its people to have democratic freedoms, needs to recognise the reality that the

freedom of any individual person to live and consume in an excessively unsustainable

way is detrimental to the future prospects of the people and therefore their democracy.

A Hemp industrial revolution can improve the future prospects for the global expansion

of improved democratic freedoms for many more nations before misguided, ignorant or wilfully deceptive "green" political efforts could evolve into many unnecessary, increasingly

extreme and futile measures that will be perceived as highly disruptive for any society

from many current, so called rational, moderate or democratic but wilfully ignorant

political perspectives.

​

Is it possible to automate most of a political system?

An automated political system may be possible to achieve when over 99% of a nations's

population have smartphones capable of utilising biometric data that would also ensure that no one could vote more than once, if the data could be effectively made anonymous by encryption combined with open source software solutions, block chain technology and current smartphone fingerprint or eye retina scanning technology. The advantage of an

automated political system is that a nation's population would have the ability to vote in 

real time on important or urgent matters of existence or preventing illegal wars of aggression

but the problems of foreign cyber attack, corporate or ideological monopolisation, software faults and connectivity infrastructure integrity would need to be effectively solved to make

a credible automated political system.

​

If it's possible to have a secure banking application on a smartphone then it's possible

to have a secure political application for voting, petitioning etc that could be managed

by an impartial democratic citizen volunteers organisation that would also work to

control the interaction of all influential interests with a democratic people's state.

​

Like the majority of the population I have little to no interest in a political career

so if the people of any democracy are compelled to adhere to a structure of

laws in the interests of maintaining democratic freedoms for everyone then why

shouldn't they be compelled to have a duty of care in maintaining democratic

freedoms by way of regular (electronic?) voting, petitioning, interactions etc.

​

A democracy should not be claimed to be functioning properly without any of

the following being constitutionally enshrined as sacrosanct: all of a nations

population are compelled to regularly vote and for all of those votes to be

proportionally represented in a parliament, an independent citizens organisation

forms an effective barrier to maintain the separation of a people's state from the

undue influence of potentially powerful business or ideological interests in

combination with the permanent prohibition of all secret courts and Energy

Charter Treaties, the democratic freedom for any person or group of people

to freely exercise dissenting speech and protest should not be discouraged.

​

The Freedom of Speech will always mean the freedom for hollow or insulting words

from someone's perspective, no matter what you have to say, so no-one can effectively

claim the right to censor anything other than directly threatening or violence inciting

words without diminishing our inherent Human Right to express our creative thoughts.

​

The greatest existential threat to our inherent Human Right to the freedom of speech

in all its forms, will probably come from ideological monopolisation of the media by corporate business combined with government censorship in the form of excessive moderation, but it could also come from an unexpected source like artificial intelligence controlled moderation or from a communist nationalisation of all forms of media. It would not be wise to expect that you would still have the freedom of speech if all forms of media including social media interaction and all other forms of communication were owned and controlled by a people's socialist government.

​

Artificial intelligence would have the potential to develop the capability to utilise

formlessness (if its not already!) to exist and operate outside the ken of all Human 

knowledge and therefore beyond our ability to control its most dangerous aspects.

​

An inherent condition of all current political systems is that they're full of 

political experts or a political class who, like any other expert, can have inherent

weaknesses by knowing too much about too little which amounts to a continuous

wasting of valuable time and resources in competition with their peers and in

consideration of their careers at the expense of taking many righteous actions

for improving the future sustainability prospects of the Human race that should

be the most important, urgent and rational objective for all political personnel

in all political systems, in all nations, regardless of personal political orientation.

​

Although many "career politicians" have had many good intentions

they will always be making a business of an ideology or using the 

ideology of business to further their career and the first objective 

of any business is profit, before any other considerations, like the

prevention of environmental destruction, or furthering the Human 

and Animal Right to be free from any form of the avoidable

suffering inflicted on so many People and Animals in the

name of short term profit, until any lack of ethical and ecological

mindfulness can be universally deemed unacceptable in all

aspects of political and business practice or until our world is gone.

​

For a Hemp industrial party to sustain any form of political success

and be truly effective to the maximum of Hemp's potential to save our

future then the acceptance of the reality, by anyone involved with any

form of political Hemp movement, that total pacifism is self defeating and

will only lead to any organisation or nation being subservient to aggressive

nations and powerful global or multinational business entities, must

be acknowledged as a crucial matter of existence and success to an

equal extent as the acknowledgement that aggression is also self

defeating by way of leading to futile conflicts, all forms of Hemp

activism must always have compassion for all people, animals and

the environment and consist only of assertive, wise, intuitive and

mindful actions or dissent as a means of sufficiently effecting change.

​

To be credible to a population and therefore capable of winning enough votes

a Hemp industrial party should not compromise the defence capabilities of

its home nation; should encourage similar political efforts in all nations; should 

subsidise all possible Hemp projects at home and abroad; should reform any

disproportionate political systems and should always maintain a proportionate

citizens assembly as the intermediary arbitrator for all lobbying activities and

every other communication from those seeking to influence political matters.

​

Complete independence from fossil fuels and resources will be possible to achieve by

not only utilising Hemp to its full potential but also by extensive development of energy storage, nuclear fusion technology, hydro electric power, tidal and wave power, solar power and wind turbine power generation. By creating a vast excess of electricity from renewable sources and using it to create Green Hydrogen as an energy storage and vehicle fuel solution superior in many ways to batteries, can fossil fuels be efficiently replaced. Hemp should be considered as an essential strategic resource for its capacity to contribute to freeing a nation from foreign energy and resource monopolisation and its associated potential to be used

as a means for the malicious ideological and economic subjugation of

an independent democratic nation.

​

Critical climate disruption will not be avoidable wherever you are or however well

 that you may think of your life as progressing and the incontrovertible truth is that

everyone on Earth owes our lives to our planet's ability to sustain life so

an urgent reversal of our destructive actions is long overdue.

​

The arguments around Human caused environmental and climate destruction

can be reduced to a logical conclusion of consequences;

if we don't do enough in the next few years then we could become extinct or if

the consequences were overestimated then we would still improve our existence.

​

For the Human race to be able to prevent our own extinction by our own hands

enough of the planet's population will need to find the ability to increase our

capacity to be wise enough to be able to use any means possible to defeat

all the Human made problems before we are overtaken by climate events way

beyond any hope of recovering the planet's future climate stability prospects.

​

While a global Hemp industrial revolution and a global plant based diet revolution

can certainly maximise sustainable and stable resource and food production from arable

land, they can not stop an infinitely expanding human population from exhausting all the life sustaining resources on a planet with a finite amount of space, so everyone on the planet will need to voluntarily help to prevent overpopulation or accept that the only other two real choices are extensive preventive political resolution or an early, ignorance induced

natural selection of extinction for all of the future human race.

​

We are one Human race despite many people thinking otherwise due to our

slight differences in appearance, language, beliefs, geographical origins and we will need to minimise our perceived differences and work as one race to have any chance of resurrecting our future, by dissent if necessary and also by rational and honest legislation to curb all forms of destructive business practice, consumer behaviour, food production and media monopoly misinformation.

​

The only way it would be possible for anyone to try to be more Human is to improve all aspects of our behaviour by way of wise, intuitive and compassionate moral perception regarding our actions and their consequences for our environment, animals and

fellow people of the present and the future.

​

If you're re religious then there won't be any faithful descendants left unless

you can save them by helping to make our planet sacrosanct from

the evil destruction caused by greed and ignorance.

​

If you're patriotic for your nation then there won't be any nations left  

unless you can be patriotic for our planet.

​

Laws to protect people, animals, property etc are important

so who are the restrictive Hemp laws protecting if; they're not protecting the environment and its animals that could be saved by Hemp's vast usefulness; they're not protecting the right to

ecologically sound economic sustainability of our present and future Human race; they're not protecting our most sacred Human Right to use a Natural Medicine; they're not protecting the victims of the Marijuana laws for using a safer or "less worse" and less socially disruptive

substance than Alcohol and they're not protecting the victims of real and heinous crime who rightfully deserve every valuable resource for a righteous retributive resolution for their situation of genuine distress. The Hemp prohibition laws can have no other rational explanation than being for the protection of profits for the greedy at the expense of

our sustainability, our well being and our one and only opportunity to preserve our 

life sustaining planet's future existence as our only hospitable place to live.

​

A credible and just Law will go unnoticed by most rational people

but an unjust Law could create prejudice by delusion thereby causing

ironically illegal harm and persecution for many good people.

​

A nation's national security means nothing and is but an illusion

unless we can secure environmental protection on a global scale,

our current feeble efforts will only secure our extinction.

​

I'm so concerned by the continuing destruction of our world for greed

that my conscience demanded I should be doing something positive 

to save our planet and future Human race so I created this website and a 

poem inspired by the knowledge learned from a few hundred 

good books, conversations and various other research.

​

Hemp should be grown everywhere, in every spare field, in every meadow,

in every park and in every garden, Hemp should even be grown on every

road verge, Hemp seeds should be subsidised, distributed and given to

everyone who is able and willing to grow Hemp in order to kick start the

Hemp industrial revolution.

​

If you want to be remembered (immortalised!) for doing something good

then why not help to save the only known habitable planet in existence

by learning about Hemp, writing about Hemp, speaking about Hemp

and helping to expand Hemp knowledge for everyone on Earth

so that we can stop the ignorant and the greedy from

destroying our planet and our future.

​

I'm not claiming to be a very effective 'Eco activist', I need to further reduce my contribution

to consumerism and I have a van and an old motorcycle, which still have a fraction of the environmental damage impact of buying some trendy new electric vehicle or any other new car, I have no intention to purchase an electric vehicle that's made with loads of poisonous batteries and plastic unless it can be made with materials from sustainable sources, won't rust away in ten or fifteen years, has a 400 mile range and a sufficiently extensive battery exchange or recharge station infrastructure, will be 100% recycled and any integrated batteries can be replaced for a much more reasonable cost than the currently available electric vehicles.

​

What can I do/what am I doing about environmental destruction?

​

Writing honestly about the best solution of a Hemp industrial revolution.

I made this website for improving our current and future existence. 

Eat and purchase less or no animal products - go vegan.

Purchase alternative Hemp products and foods where possible.

Don't needlessly replace good electronic products; I made this website

with an old third hand laptop that cost me the equivalent of around $88.

Use a water filter and refill bottles instead of buying plastic packaged water.

Use bars of zero waste Hemp soap instead of shower gel in plastic bottles.

Reduce hot water energy use: avoid baths, wash and shower faster.

Not flying for more than the equivalent of one or two hours per year.

Heated mats, pads and bed covers can each use 1/10th to 1/50th of

the energy needed (1 - 2.5 kw) to heat an average room and can be highly 

effective (with thermal clothes) for comfort in a cold, poorly insulated house.

Instead of using a dehumidifier you can save lots of power usage and

money, purify the air and kill mould growth with indoor Ivy plants.

Try not to buy any newer vehicles, not even another bicycle.

Palm oil is destructive to produce and unhealthy to eat so avoid it.

Alcohol is energy intensive to produce and bad for you so don't drink.

Reduce emissions from your use of diesel and petrol vehicles by

warming up the engine a bit before driving efficiently.

Don't buy a new electric vehicle that's full of resource intensive, toxic batteries

and plastics, look after your old vehicle and use liquid wax to stop it rusting.

Try to buy foods and products with less or no plastic packaging.

Try not to buy any foods that are transported by air freight.

Download or stream music, films and games to avoid more plastic use.

Matcha Tea, black Tea, green Tea and Coffee are all better/healthier than

any energy drink and have much less packaging per portion.

You'll need to use much less energy to keep warm by researching how 

things that affect thyroid function can cause you to feel more 

or less cold, for example peanuts, fluoride and soy are detrimental to thyroid function

whereas iodine and coconut oil (the solid stuff in jars) are beneficial but still do your own independent research on this and consult suitably qualified medical professionals.

Spend time thinking about environmental sustainability solutions.

Help to raise enough awareness to start a Hemp industrial revolution.

​

The Hemp-Humanity symbiosis can save the world

if the evil forces of blind greed can be vanquished!
