World Wide Hemp Alliance (WWHA) has partnered with people from every walk of life and all around the world to re-introduce the most significant botanical on Earth. It represents our planet’s true salvation in almost uncountable ways. For those readers who are not aware why the cultivation of hemp was deemed illegal in much of the world for the last 75 to 80 years, the short version follows.
Eighty + years ago, a very rich man saw hemp, which in those days was commonly grown by all landowners in the USA by law, as a major threat to the massive profits from his cotton empire and other interests. It was being more and more known that hemp could produce superior textiles at drastically reduced prices and a drastically longer shelf life.
It should be staggering to the imagination of any thinking person, that as we struggle to provide for the needs of a planet that is out of control, while ignoring, through political prevention, that the one single element that could replace natural resources was being subverted. Reports talk of these resources dwindling, while mining, logging, extraction, and burning of these critical resources is destroying our ecosystem.
We have polluted the land, overworked the soil and clear cut forests for profits while this one botanical could replace the processes that give us timber, paper, textiles, fuel, plastic, metals, concrete, life-saving medicines, nutrition and healthy homes that produce power beyond the homeowner’s needs, thereby producing excess power to sell to the grid.
There is a dangerous shortage of sand for concrete while hempcrete can be produced without sand or stone and in most applications without re-bar or slump. Hempcrete is half the price, half the weight, 20 times the shelf life and is healthy and beneficial to humans.
Now add to that the amazing fact that it will not displace workers but will increase productivity, saving employers significantly. Two of many reasons we do not protect our resources and they are the words greed and profit. The vested interest in these massive industries is so powerful that anyone who threatens their status quo is removed from the equation in one way or another.
We have chosen Canada for our world headquarters because the legalities for growing and distributing hemp products have been long since dealt with. We are partnering with the indigenous communities in North America for growing rights and we have sources for an unlimited supply of the quality base-product for industrial, nutritional, personal and medicinal production of this life-giving plant.
We are also able to produce the unique grinding system to turn hemp herd into ‘baby powder’ fineness. This is not commonly available throughout 95% of the Earth’s hemp production.
There are currently close to 50,000 legitimate and profitable hemp based products on the world market. Although this only produces ten to 20 billion dollars in annual revenues and demonstrates the viability of hemp as a cash crop, it is still very much a cottage industry.
The war against this magnificent botanical by the industrial power block is preventing medicinal cures for many afflictions and diseases that now represent trillions to big pharma. It is also preventing recovery and protection of our forests and the end to the pillaging of beaches worldwide to fill the massive market for sand for the insatiable need for concrete to build millions of new homes and commercial buildings in the next several years.
Hemp replenishes the land, requires little to no pesticides, is the most profitable cash crop on the planet and can be turned into biodegradable plastic-like garbage bags. Add to that, the finest and most long lasting paper and hempcrete that produces healthy homes that balance humidity and are as futuristic in design as any home ever built.
I have direct access to the premier builder of hemp homes. You design with square corners or sweeping curves, it's up to you.

I do think it is an important crop for so many reasons. And it is obviously illegal cause it threatens so many established interests. For the sake of discussion though, I have heard that we need to be more reliant on perennial crops rather than annuals if we hope to continue to exist as a species.
As much as I support the movement towards legalization. I wonder how much truth there is to this. It has been said that throughout time acorns (perennials) have made up much more of a normal human diet than say wheat or corn.
Just food for thought. There is no silver bullet in our global ecosystem but we should be allowed to use all the tools nature has given us.
