Hemp University – Short introduction to hemp

Hemp is a variety of the cannabis sativa plant (more later on this).  Hemp may be the most useful plant known to man kind. In fact, cannabis sativa means useful(sativa) hemp(cannabis). It is used to make over 25,000 different products, most of which are superior alternatives to less environmentally friendly products. Some of the products made are: clothing, shoes, diapers, rope, canvas, cellophane, paints, fuels, chain lubricants, biodegradable plastics, paper, fiberboard, cement blocks, food, cosmetics, and soap.  The reemergence of hemp is slowly but steadily progressing within the United States while gaining full government support in other nations.  Industrial hemp is frequently confused with marijuana in the United States mainly due to a lack of understanding of the plants.
