Hello Roger, I had thought this thread had done it's dash, but glad to have it revived again with your visit.
Industrial Hemp seems to be illegal in most countries as it has unfortunately been put under the category of narcotic cannabis/marijuana the narcotic drug and as it is now 60 odd years ago that hemp was used for the many products that it is capable of being used and extremely safe, like your hand creme for one.. I do not foresee it coming back any time soon which is a great shame.
There are the 'tree huggers' whom get on their high horses about the amount of forestry that gets cut down to make into sawdust, pulp, timber, cardboard, paper etc etc and trees give us oxygen which has to be replanted to keep the balance.
It would be so nice to re-introduce this industrial hemp plant back into its rightful place. I wonder how one could go about re-educating the population..
Amanda
