HEMP and GLOBAL WARMING
The world’s forests are the biggest carbon sinks next to the oceans. If we keep taking trees, wood and fiber from them there will be no way to stop global warming.
The average composite mill uses 500-1500 tons of fiber 300+ days per year. There are thousands of these mills all over the world. IF GROWN AND HARVESTED PROPERLY HEMP CAN BE USED IN THESE MILLS ROUGHLY AS THEY ARE NOW.
Trees can take hundreds of years to mature. Hemp takes 120 or so days, which makes more sense to produce a house (which could last for 25 to 75 years). In the end using trees to make houses is a loosing proposition Every time a civilization cuts down its available forests it falls.
