Think of all the
things you own or use which are currently contain petrochemical based
plastics: your mobile phone, your computer, your furniture, your clothing,
your furniture, your car...
At a time when the price of oil and its derivative products is rising
ever higher, the need for sustainable alternatives has never been greater.
Hemp has almost unlimited potential to fulfil that need. In ideal
conditions, industrial hemp grows up to 18 metres in just 90 days
and has little need for herbicides. In the past it has been maligned
and misunderstood, through confusion with its look-alike drug-producing
relative. But smoke a field of industrial hemp and all you would get
is a headache!
As well as plastics, hemp can also supply the world with everything
from food, paper and fuel, to building materials, clothing and, of
course, didgeridoos.
Hemp didgeridoos, such as the ones we use, avoid the need to fell
precious rainforest to obtain wood to make them. Hemp didgeridoos, like all instruments produced using hemp stone have fantastic acoustic properties. See hempdidge.com for more on didgeridoos, or zelfoaustralia.com for more on Zelfo |
