What we would like to know is why hemp as a crop is illegal in the U.S., while we are the largest importer of hemp products in the world. What does this say about how we view our economy? What does the ban on hemp say about our intelligence as a people? Perhaps we should ask what the ban says about our government, as the people clearly want to grow hemp for the benefits of hemp - and there are many. If you Support hemp, please contact your legislators and let them know. It's time for a change in policy.
On Tuesday, David Bronner, CEO of Dr. Bronner's, was arrested in his protest for legalizing hemp in front of the White House.

The U.S. is reportedly the largest hemp product importer in the world, yet we cannot grow this all important crop ourselves. Why? Check out the Sacred Earth Gardens blog to find out.
Should we legalize cultivation of hemp in our country? Absolutely! Check out the Green Living Resource Center blog to hear just a few of the reasons why we should. We have a couple more hemp related posts up this evening. The Green Living Resource Center (blog) has a video up on the market for hemp products. If you're interested in hemp clothing, check out the Sacred Earth Organics blog.
If you now someone who has had cancer, you should take a look at the video posted now on the Healing Arts Center blog. It is called "Run from the Cure: The Rick Simpson Story". There have been many cases in which people have successfully used hemp oil to cure cancer. While we, thankfully, do not have direct experience in using hemp oil as a curative for cancer, we encourage any of you who find it to be of interest to fully investigate it for your own health preservation measures.
It is important that we state here that hemp is different from marijuana. Hemp contains no THC, the "drug" aspect of marijuana, even though both plants come from the cannabis family. The Foundation (including the Healing Arts Center) does not suggest the use of any recreational drug - legal or illegal. We do not find the use of drugs of any form necessary or appropriate. We recommend meditation if one is seeking relaxation, enlightenment, or just an incredible adventure. Meditation even helps with pain management or elimination. This movie is about using hemp oil for medicinal purposes, and specifically curing cancer! We hope you enjoy it. Yes, evidently hemp oil seems to be a good alternative to chemotherapy for the treatment of skin cancer. Find out more on the Healing Arts Center blog.
Henry Ford was not the only one to build a car from hemp! Check out the Lotus Eco Elise car on the Green Living Resource Center blog.

We have a weekend video challenge for all you hemp fans! We have found the Longest Most Educational Hemp documentary ever! It will likely take you a while to get through this video. It is more than four hours long! However, it's time that we all took a good hard look at making sustainability happen now rather than later. Bringing hemp back is a great way to start!
