It is believed 1 acre of hemp over the course of 20 years can produce 4 to 10 times the amount of paper than trees and although the deforestation problem we are faced with today is associated to many things the trees saved would still reduce the damaging effects paper production has on our planet; yet less than 1% of paper we use today is made with hemp. Hemp Plastic which can not only be made to be completely recycled, reducing the enormous amounts of pollution on beaches and destruction to the oceans it can also be produced with little to no chemicals,which we all know the plastic we use today now mostly is made out of.Those who discredit the worldwide use of hemp as a material say it can be costly and time consuming to produce the equivalent of what we have today and they're right.
