before oil. It is the plant that the human have the most cultivated,
with maize and wheat, since a very long time. The idea that it is
something dangerous is a total complete recent construct, and has only
been a Trojan horse for bandits (probably the one losing the job after
the end of alcohol prohibition) to get power.
Hi,
Any idea how much land would be required to grow sufficient hemp to
supply the millions of barrels that our civilization requires? How much
fertilizer? How much labor? Have you seem the quantity of energy that is
required to turn corn into fuel. for example? The problem is that hemp
and other biomass fuel idea are simply too expensive in terms of energy
and man hours to replace petrofuels.
