This document discusses the potential for hemp-based alternatives to provide a more sustainable future. It begins with an introduction describing how the linear take-make-waste model is harming the environment and finite resources. The document then reviews the literature on hemp uses. It defines industrial hemp and its history of use, particularly in India and by Henry Ford. The document outlines hemp's multiple uses from textiles to food to building materials. It provides examples of hemp-based concrete, cloth, biodegradable plastic, and concludes that hemp can replace some of society's most polluting materials in a way that is better for the planet.

1.What is hemp ? 2.History of hemp 3.Uses of hemp 03 INDUSTRIAL HEMP
WHAT IS HEMP ? Hemp is a variety of cannabis with less than 0.3 %THC, apart from CBD it can also be grown to create other kinds of products, including: paper clothing textiles animal feed plastic food products
DIFFERENCE BETWEEN HEMP AND MARIJUANA
HISTORY OF HEMP A native to Indian subcontinent, one of the earliest mentions of hemp is found in the Vedas. There is also evidence that the ancient art works of the Ajanta & Ellora caves were preserved for centuries as the wall plaster contained a mixer of hemp and clay. In 1941 , Henry Ford made a car constructed from hemp and designed to run o n hemp bio fuel.
USES OF HEMP All parts of the plants are useful. Hemp has both medical and industrial uses. Hemp is used to make a variety of commercial and industrial product s, including rope, textiles, clothing, shoes, food, paper, bio-plastics, i nsulation, building materials and bio-fuel. Many people consider hemp seeds to be a superfood. The seeds hav e a rich nutritional profile and provide a range of health benefits.

HEMP-BASED ALTERNATIVES

HEMP-BASED CONCRETE Concrete is the most widely used material in the world If cement were a country it would be the third largest emitter of CO2 So some construction companies are using something called Hempcrete inst ead Hempcrete is carbon-negative,because its made up of the woody core of he mp plants, water and a lime-based binder Its also a great insulator and its also fire and pest resistant Hempcrete can even be made into bricks just like concrete, and they can las t for hundreds of years Hempcrete is not as strong as concrete but it is used to make green eco-fri endly buildings

HEMP-BASED CLOTHS Hemp fibers can even be spun into cloth just like cotton and can be a n alternative to cotton Hemp requires half the amount of land to grow as cotton And from field to factory, hemp uses about a quarter of the amount of water as cotton. Most cotton is also incredibly carbon-intensive Growing and processing one kilogram of cotton fibers releases about 2.5 times more carbon dioxide than hemp fibers

HEMP-BASED BIODEGRADABLE PLASTIC Hemp can even be made into plastic which is made from oil and poll uting all corners of the planet By 2050, fossil fuel emissions from plastic production and incineratio n could reach 2.75 billion metric tons per year. Hemp-based plastic can be made into anything from containers to fri sbees,musical instruments, speakers, furniture and even car parts Even better, hemp plastic is non-toxic and biodegradable.

05 CONCLUSION Hemp can serve as an eco-friendly alternative to some of the worlds most polluting materials. Not only is hemp the source of CBD, but its seeds and Fiber can make many of the modern necessities concrete,plastic, fabric, and fuel. Hemp alternatives are better for the planet, as well as less toxic.
