This dude is well ahead of the curve. Even if you don’t get it yet this is how we are going to be doing business and living life in the future. That is if we don’t poison the World before the future child is born.

I really hope that more people follow this man’s wisdom.

I’m going to look the guy up and send him an email to thank him on behalf of my unborn future children.

because in and of …
because in and of itself hemp is sustainable….no fertilizers needed no pesticides, it’s a healthy & cheap source of protein and omega 3 and 6. it can be made into plastic that’s biodegradable. i could name more but ultimately hemp is a threat to many corporations that continue to propagate unsuitable activities because of blind pursuit of profit. Male & female cannabis=better world *oversimplified but nevertheless cannabis **female** is a definite counter to dumb drugs like tobacco and beer.

the cynic believes and perpetuates scarcity. Hubris, greed, avarice restricts abundance to a priviledged few. My studies and observations say that more accurately reflects the sentiment of those in poverty, in hunger, in disease. To work with the Earth, wth social responsibility is an invitation to live in solution. Perhaps you prefer to be part of the problem.
