I’m bullish on hemp as a replacement for plastics, it can be used for many of the same purposes (textiles, packaging), as paper, is easy to grow, inert, and stable yet biodegradable. Hemp had a shot at becoming mainstream before Henry Anslinger went on his cannabis crusade, and though it was legalized in 2018, plastics have too much momentum for hemp to become a common solution without major regulatory change.
