The medical evidence in support is very overwhelming, and Hemp is one of the most sustainable crops grown throughout history.

The government could earn billions in taxes, shut down a black market, regulate quality, we can make everything from textiles to paper to carbon fibre out of hemp.

"In 1916, USDA Bulletin No. 404, reported that one acre of cannabis hemp, in annual rotation over a 20-year period, would produce as much pulp for paper as 4.1 acres of trees being cut down over the same 20-year period. This process would use only 1/4 to 1/7 as much polluting sulfur-based acid chemicals to break down the glue-like lignin that binds the fibers of the pulp, or even none at all using soda ash. The problem of dioxin contamination of rivers is avoided in the hemp paper making process, which does not need to use chlorine bleach (as the wood pulp paper making process requires) but instead safely substitutes hydrogen peroxide in the bleaching process. ... If the new (1916) hemp pulp paper process were legal today, it would soon replace about 70% of all wood pulp paper, including computer printout paper, corrugated boxes and paper bags."

If all fossil fuels and their derivatives, as well as trees for paper and construction, were banned in order to save the planet, reverse the Greenhouse Effect and stop deforestation;

then there is only one known annually renewable natural resource that is capable of providing the overall majority of the world's paper and textiles; meet all of the world's transportation, industrial and home energy needs, while simultaneously reducing pollution, rebuilding the soil and cleaning the atmosphere all at the same time...

and that substance is the same one that has done it before . . CANNABIS HEMP!

Batteries are not ideal, but electric cars are definitely the future. Have a look at current Ultracapacitor technology that will soon replace batteries: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EEstor

The problem with hydrogen is it's density. Compressing hydrogen to a liquid costs 30% of the energy it contains.

We must find a better way of moving ourselves as our current demand shows no signs of slowing. Technologically, there are few reasons that electric cars are not thriving and profitable. It is political will and profit by few that drives the industry today.
