"Hemp For Victory"
Hemp for Victory is an important marker in the global history
of hemp. After the prohibition of hemp in the 1930's, a way
had to be found to backtrack, licence the formerly outlawed
resource for growing, in order that the war-drive could roll
ever on, towards its final victory.
In times of dire resource shortages, there is no crop which
grows as prolifically, or has so many uses, as the humble hemp
plant. Since WWII, technology and processes have improved immeasurably.
With our advanced technologies, can't we do more with hemp,
now? Now, as then, the usefulness of the hemp plant can save
lives and help to revitalise production of sustainably manufactured
goods, at the local level.
