Global Cannabis Summit in the Month of August

IT'S TIME FOR HEMP PROHIBITION TO END
A GLOBAL CANNABIS SUMMIT
THE WHOLE WORLD CAN ATTEND!

Each Friday this August, 'Time 4 Hemp - LIVE' will be hosting 2-hour specials to produce a 10-hour Global Cannabis Summit with some of the most brilliant minds and amazing leaders of the Industrial Hemp and Medical Marijuana Movement. This presentation will be broadcast live on http://www.AmericanFreedomRadio.com as well as on AM/FM stations across America and the ROKU Broadcasting Network at 9-11a.m. (PST) then made available for free download from the archives at American Freedom Radio and in iTunes.

The Cannabis Legalization Movement has long wanted
to have Congressional or Senate Hearings
as well as the chance to meet with world leaders to present:

1.) the rational thinking and hard data that verify PROHIBITION as a failed policy which ruin personal lives as well as the future of the following generations;
2.) the most significant scientific studies pertaining to medical marijuana and the need to stop arresting sick people and those who are caring for them;
3.) the hard data that verifies the cost of arresting people for using marijuana (as well as other items found in the black-market) is something society can no longer afford;
4.) the historical evidence (along with the current needs of the world today such as the mess at Fukushima or world hunger) which demand that humans MUST reintroduce industrial hemp back into the global agricultural markets in order for us and the planet to survive;
5.) the steps NECESSARY TO TAKE TO END THE GLOBAL WAR ON DRUGS - which is further complicated by the many anti-drug international treaties.

'Time 4 Hemp' is tired of waiting for the Cannabis Movement to be given such an invitation and has organized this 5 conference series. During each 2-hour commercial free broadcast, moderators will conduct discussions with 6 expert panelist brought together from all corners of the earth to present the most current research and statistics concerning this trillion dollar industry. When all is said and done, over 30 professionals will have addressed their concerns and solutions in a format that makes this material available FREE to everyone - including ALL THE WORLD LEADERS.

Germany ECOLAR sets the standard in Europe Hemp construction

Solar Decathon Europe got all fired up when Germany's Ecolar house got first place in the   Engineering competition, placing it second overall in this year's contest! Judges recognized the team's thoughtful incorporation of several solar solutions, ecological and financial sensitivity, as well as their crafty emphasis on modularity. A flexible design that expands or shrinks to accommodate different users, ECOLAR also uses three different kinds of vertical and rooftop solar panels to generate energy. The team rounded out the remarkable project by insulating the compact home with one of the world's most renewable and sustainable materials: hemp!


ECOLAR’s basic construction, comprised of beams and columns, essentially stays the same but can be configured differently based on the homeowner’s preferences. In keeping with the mandates of genuine sustainability, the team stuck to sustainably-sourced wood for construction, and then incorporated hemp insulation in the floors, walls and ceiling to prevent thermal loss. Despite being outlawed in some countries, this really is one of the most sensible materials to use in construction today.
The vertical and rooftop solar panels are all different and can be either opaque or semi-transparent depending on where they are placed. In addition to generating energy – about 14,371 kWh each year in Germany – these panels also contribute to the home’s aesthetic appeal and passive design. All of the technical equipment is housed in a super cabinet behind the kitchen panel that slides in and out, providing plenty of space in which to conduct any necessary electrical or mechanical tune ups or repairs. Congratulations Team Ecolar!

Hemp Inc. indicates that hemp crop yield is on schedule

LAS VEGAS, June 25, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- After the planting of its hemp crop in the Gansu Province of Northwest China, Hemp, Inc. is pleased to report that the cultivation is progressing on schedule. "According to a USDA report, on average, China produces significantly higher yields per acre of hemp. That's the primary reason we chose China to grow our crop," said David Tobias, President of Hemp, Inc. "Hemp seeds, hulled and marketed as 'hemp hearts' or as 'toasted hemp seed', are in high demand by consumers. The actual retail value of this harvest, in seed products alone, could be well over $2,000,000. We are encouraged at the prospects to gain market share as America's demand for hemp foods is on the rise."



Another part of the crop consists of a Hemp cultivar suitable for textile manufacturing. These hemp fibers will be blended with cotton or other natural fibers and made into soft, durable garments such as T-shirts. Hemp clothing is growing in popularity, and celebrities have added to hemp's appeal by wearing designer hemp on the red carpet. Demand for Hemp fabric may become much greater however, as according to a recent release by a leading natural fiber company, EnviroTextiles; "Research has proven hemp's ability to kill surface bacteria, while cotton, polyester, and polyethylene allow bacteria such as staph to remain on their surfaces for up to months at a time. China's military is using industrial hemp fabric for uniforms to fight staph infection. Other tests show hemp fabrics superior resistance to UV and infrared wavelengths, providing multiple applications for military use."

Hemp, Inc. CEO, Bruce Perlowin stated, "These tests show antimicrobial and antibacterial attributes of the hemp plant, that along with the heart healthy Omega fatty acids and protein in the seed, and hemp's soil remediation qualities, make for a sustainable crop that is useful in every aspect."

A value-added part of the Hemp plant is the chaff... the highly absorbent central part of the stem, obtained by mechanical de-fibering after the seeds are removed. The chaff is used for wet process hemp concrete building applications and animal bedding.

"We want all the chaff to use for the hemp adobe bricks that we will be making on our facilities in Arizona," continued Perlowin. "The market for eco-friendly landscape and building materials is huge."   Tobias continued, "We are at the beginning of an expanding market. Elite athletes began moving toward vegan protein supplements of which hemp is best. Recently, Hemp has gone mainstream in local markets. Now we're seeing the possibilities in healthcare, construction and even military applications.  The economy of hemp is expanding, and Hemp, Inc. is poised to be an important part of it."

Hemp, Inc.'s TRIPLE BOTTOM LINE

Hemp, Inc. (OTC: HEMP) seeks to benefit many constituencies, not exploit or endanger any group of them. Thus, the publicly-traded company believes in "upstreaming" of a portion of profit from the marketing of their finished hemp goods back to its originator. By Hemp, Inc. focusing on comprehensive investment results—that is, with respect to performance along the interrelated dimensions of people, planet, and profits— our triple bottom line approach can be an important tool to support sustainability goals.

Darius Dunn with Hemp products in his 'Made in Hemp' Store at Long Jetty



Mr Dunn, a founding member of the Hemp Association of NSW, has been wholesaling hemp products for several years and has just opened the latest unusual business in the newly trendy suburb of Long Jetty, Made in Hemp.
``My interest in hemp began when my young son was suffering from severe eczema a few years ago,'' he said.
``We had tried a lot of treatments without success and someone suggested hemp cream, which cleared the condition up.''
Mr Dunn began researching the medicinal and health values of the plant in earnest and eventually traveled to Canada, which has a thriving hemp cultivation program, to discuss bringing the products to Australia.
He began wholesaling the goods to health food stores, eventually complementing them with clothing.
``Many people hear the word hemp and think of marijuana,'' he said.
``But hemp is especially cultivated from the cannabis plant and selectively bred to eliminate the psychoactive constituent THC.
``What many people don't realize is that hemp has been used for thousands of years for the health benefits of its seeds and oils.
``Hemp fiber has also been used for many centuries to make sturdy, environmentally friendly clothing.''
The Hemp Association of NDS is working with other state associations to establish a national body and lobby the government to make hemp cultivations in Australia a financial possibility.


**Hemp is legal to cultivate in Australia with a License.  Thank you those who sent emails and made comments to correct the error.  Cheers.

July 4th: America shows Old Glory as it was first made

This July 4th marks the first time since the 1930's that an American flag will fly on the Capitol flag pole as it was first made...of Hemp.  The flag is made of Hemp and has not been used since hemp was placed in the Marijuana Act of 1937. 

Betsy Ross made the flag with Hemp that showed the original 13 stars to mark each colony that would make up the first states of the New World.

Remember on this July 4th what you are celebrating.  When you look at Old Glory cutting through blue sky tell those around you she was originally manufactured using hemp fibers grown in American fields by American farmers.  Of which included George Washington and Thomas Jefferson .

Happy Birthday America

Welcome Home Hemp

Hemp History Week in Missouri





Statewide Missouri (June 3rd, 2013)—The Missouri Hemp network is proud to announce  the 4th annual Hemp History week.  From June 3rd through June 9th Americans can embrace the majestic history of Industrial Hemp and praise the path it is taking right now.  These celebrations includes free promotions, information packets, and even a viewing of “Bring it Home”.

Steven Wilson had this to say about Hemp History Week, “The Hemp issue has matured and the American people are interested in the discussion now.  They are contacting their public servants and demanding answers.  Farm sovereignty, Genetically Modified food, and fair trade are now a primary focus for young parents with children.”

Wilson had mentioned that Missouri is not alien to Hemp cultivation.  Oliver Anderson  started hemp production in 1830 along with partner Samuel Jackson.  Eventually Anderson would form Anderson and Gratz, which at their peak, produced 20 tons of Hemp.  In one year they shipped 1,700 coils of hemp rope into St Louis.

Missouri Hemp even played a role in the civil war. At the Battle of Lexington, Hemp Bales saved the day as they were used  as a shield against enemy fire.

Wilson added, “Hemp is our future because it is our past”.

Hemp History week is being celebrated throughout the state at these locations.
