Do you know?
Hemp Plastic is the only plastic that's 100% biodegradable. Hemp plant consumes 4 times more CO2 than other plants from the atmosphere. The fiber we can produce from the plant is stronger than the conventional fiber we are using these days.

Yes and the Declaration of Independence of the United States is written on hemp paper. True fact.

Hah, didn't know that!
But I guess it makes sense since hemp fiber was so much used back in the day.
It has really interesting properties but it's a pain to work with because of all the regulations. At least here in Brazil
Back in college, a friend of mine was doing some research to develop a new compound fiber and he wanted to use hemp, but the paperwork was so massive that he gave up

Wasn't this a Hoax Dan? I saw it in the news. But you can't always trust them.

Not a hoax. Hemp was a very big crop here in the United States. We have a term called smoking rope here in the United States. Rope was traditionally made from hemp.
Hemp is very easy to grow. There is a reason its nickname is weed.

Even some types of fabric were made from hemp. It's actually a very versatile material.
It's a shame that we don't use it as well as we could because of very outdated ideas and limitations

Oh yeah. That's so cool. In India where I live, it grows automatically adjacent to the roads. Big 6 feet tall bushes of Weed. 😂 😂

Ah now that is something I don't think I have heard of before. Then again I doubt schools would try to promote weed to students.

Biodegradable is good. I support their change to this and hopefully we will see more companies do the switch as well.
