Panacea’s organization for education on - and manufacture of – Hemp products for sustainable development.
Update – We here at Panacea are currently looking to start a Hemp production program in Australia. If any interested parties have a license to produce hemp in Australia – and are interested in upscaling production to include over 50,000 Hemp-based products and also Hemp-based Bio-Fuel, please contact Panacea now!
If your an Austrlaian do you realize that 'In the early 1800s, Australia was twice saved from famine by eating virtually nothing but hemp seed for protein and hemp leaves for roughage?. -Source
Did you know that a renewable sustainable industry is not possible with out replacing industry with 50,000 Hemp products.This page is essential introductory information to increase your comprehension of the beneficial results in instigating hemp-production in both third world and western countries. Hemp production should be embraced for sustainable development and also as a replacement Bio Fuel.
We here at Panacea have also published useful facts laying out the benefits of establishing Hemp-Bio-Fuel stations globally – for the goal of public lobbying support to count at the federal level. Your petitions and our facts detailing the benefits of Hemp Bio Fuel stations shall be submitted to politicians to let them know that governmental support should be provided.
Many past and present independent studies attest to the significance, facts and also the justification for using hemp for sustainable development.
A perfect back round on the damage current industrial products cause, and an example of how a HEMP replacement is the best renewable solution can be found in the following facts provided by the story of stuff dot com.

The opium poppy plant is grown under controlled conditions for medical use (for example codeine and pain killers).This has been done for years successfully under strict supervision in Tasmania Australia. So why cannot the better industrial yeilding illegal Hemp be done in the same way (controlled conditions) for an environemntal incitative?. There is no excuse why it cannot be done.
Please consider the following documentation:
The following documentation is courtesy of the Democracy Defined Campaign and their Philosophy is endorsed by academics, attorneys,doctors (of jurisprudence, medicine, homeopathy, philosophy, etc.) and judges (U.S. & U.K.). (Standard English Spelling)
We are in receipt of and thank you for your e-mail. By way of a response, here are five thoughts and observations.
1. You mention our "recent articles about industrial hemp being the solution for Global Warming" -- BUT -- the synopsis which you received was about THE REPORT ISBN 9781902848204. THE REPORT, which is endorsed by government advisers, academics, doctors, and judges (U.S. & U.K.), is a book which is emphatically not about that inferior species which people misname "industrial" hemp.
NOTE. Correctly-speaking, hemp and cannabis are synonymous (i.e. words of the same meaning). The word 'hemp' is the ancient and modern Anglo-Saxon (English) word for the genus named cannabis by the Science of Botany, and includes all varieties and species. Marijuana ('Mary-Jane') is merely a Mexican colloquialism. The U.S. legislation of control (prohibition) is an incompetent tangle of incorrectitude and perjuries.
THE REPORT, Cannabis: The Facts, Human Rights and the Law is about cannabis sativa. Sativa is the smoker's preferred variety for personal relaxant or medication, and includes all the various species popularly called 'skunk'. This very same variety, Sativa, is also the superior species for all industrial purposes, providing profitable nutritious staple seed-food (which does not contain relaxant); and the production-cost-free (i.e. FREE) by-product of cellulose-rich wood-hurds, the biomass resource to fuel-energy, plastics, paper, etc. [and production-cost-free (i.e. FREE) by-product of fibres, the standard fibres of textiles and basis of Dresden Cotton®].
"Industrial hemp," i.e. 'THC-free' ruderalis and related hybrids are licensed in some countries and comprise a puny species; low in yield of seed and fibre, and not more than 50-60 per cent (including roots) of the biomass bulk of the real cannabis sativa. We have visited farms in France and Germany where it is cultivated.
The so-called "industrial hemp" is hopelessly inadequate for the industrial uses for which it purports to be licensed. The word "industrial" applied to this weak, measly plant, is a misnomer deliberately employed to mislead farmers (and others) into thinking it could be sufficiently productive for industrial purposes. The point is that it will not go far to replace oil, coal, and uranium for fuel-energy; nor provide the food staple needed by the starving millions; let alone stopping the use of trees for paper, resourcing the lightweight building material, Isochanvre; the modern furniture materials, and replacing oil for plastics and man-made fibres, and so on.
If this phony "industrial" hemp ever gets fully legalised it will be a foregone failure -- and that is exactly what the government-corporate vested interests intend.
By contrast, Cannabis Sativa Hemp is the full-blooded relaxant plant. It grows prolifically up to and over 15 feet (c. 5 metres), and has the relaxant and health-promoting properties. Yet, approximately half the weight of the large female plant at maturity is comprised of seed, rich in the amino acids requisite for the correct functioning of the human immune system. It cannot be patented; and it can be easily cultivated everywhere. In addition to its capacity as a macroagricultural crop cheaply to replace fossils and uranium for world fuel-energy requirements (viz. The CBEE Formulation in Part Two of THE REPORT), because Cannabis Sativa is rich in relaxant, safely and effectively replacing numerous lucrative lines of toxic pharmaceuticals (cf. the official Pharmacopoeias) it is prevented from being cultivated. (See Parts Three & Four of THE REPORT.)
Protection of government-corporate revenues and profits is the ulterior motive for prohibition, regardless of the death and damage wreaked to the population by the illegitimate denial of private cultivation, trade, possession and use of the providential plant.
Rather than the diminutive "industrial cannabis," Cannabis Sativa is the ideal plant in all the various applications. The official medico-scientific investigations of long-term smoking of cannabis conclude it to have medicinal benefits in that it is not carcinogenic and specifically protects the lungs from the effects of tobacco and other pollutants. See Parts One and Four of THE REPORT.
The arbitrary fictitious 'distinction' between 'medical' and 'recreational' use is a fallacious and profoundly damaging deception. Smoked non-addictive cannabis sativa has the clinically-confirmed unique enormous life-saving propensity of safely replacing or reducing people's use of addictive pathogens: alcohol, tobacco, opiates and other toxic drugs. The use of cannabis thus comprises a Preventive Measure and Preventive Medicine: cannabis use is health-enhancing whether used by the sick or hale; all such use is medical. See Clinical Findings in THE REPORT; Part Three.
So, Gerry, THE REPORT is a textbook about Cannabis Sativa Hemp. It is comprised of a comprehensive collation of the official FINDINGS OF FACT and Conclusions of the empirical studies conducted by world-respected academic and research institutions into the smoking of cannabis (marihuana). The expert Empirical Studies [i.e. the clinical monitored research of 'hands-on' actual long and short-term use by human test subjects] are definitive. These unanimously conclude:
firstly, the benign nature of the non-addictive, non-toxic herb;secondly, numerous efficacious applications in curative and preventive medicine which safely replace lucrative lines of toxic, addictive ineffectual pharmaceutical laboratory-derived chemical drugs (cf. official Pharmacopoeias); and thirdly, the complete exoneration of cannabis from 'skill impairment' (including driving tests) and all allegations of mental or physical 'harm', from 'danger', 'carcinosis', 'psychosis', 'amotivation', 'abuse', and 'misuse', etc.
Full technical and scientific attribution for these Findings of Fact is given in THE REPORT; see Parts One through Six; and Index & Bibliography.
Although the official Empirical Studies investigate and categorically refute all allegations of 'harm' and 'impairment', nevertheless, those representing the financial interests of government, of pharmaceutical corporations, and of others, mendaciously circulate the derogatory fictions which do NOT come from and are dismissed by the definitive empirical studies.
Faced with this shocking discrepancy between exonerative facts and malindoctrination, people find themselves perplexed and ask "if cannabis is clinically proven to be harmless, why does the government say the contrary and punish innocent people ?" THE REPORT reveals that the disinformation results from a massive but concealed motive.
When investigating allegations of "impairment," clinician-professors relate how, on occasion, research subjects enjoying effects and thinking themselves "too stoned" to perform adequately, would ask to be excused the tests, which were still insisted upon. Then, on testing, the subjects were surprised to find themselves able to perform as well as, or better than without marijuana. This finding proved to be replicable. That even the regular users were "surprised" their tests' results confirmed no decrements derive from use of cannabis, indicates they had been prepossessed by the false indoctrination.
THE REPORT investigates laboratory toxic chemical extract THC, which, within the plant itself, is compounded into a harmless chemically different form. THC studies are perjuriously 'extrapolated' as "new research on cannabis." THE REPORT also investigates the other sources of the ongoing fabricated derogation of cannabis.
Cannabis is officially exempted from all legislation, regulation or control founded on 'harm' criteria. All private cultivation, trade, possession and use are vindicated. Based on the research-established esoteric Empirical Evidence, THE REPORT is an authoritative insight into the real, but concealed, illegal reason behind Prohibition: ulterior money-motive.
THE REPORT is a public indictment of the government-corporate racket of monopoly-prohibition; it makes an incontrovertible case that Cannabis Sativa Hemp is de facto, legal. Shown by THE REPORT, recognition of the legal status of cannabis, or RElegalisation, is mandatory on legal principles. All people persecuted under the apocryphal legislation are due Amnesty and Restitution.

Despite the historical records and facts, the environmentally sustainable direction dictated by Hemp is not pursued by modern industry or university faculty courses. The only obvious reason for this is pure ignorance due to lack of Hemp education, and also the threat to financial self-interests – of people whose industries would be, over-night, made redundant by Hemp production.
The operation of the established hemp industry is profit-based, thus uninterested in increasingly competitive pricing. These operators insist that first one should establish hemp production to make money with, before focusing onto the integral importance of hemp distribution to increase its environmental benefits
This is the reason why, when you do see Hemp products, you will notice that they are much more expensive than related normal products, or, at best, “normally” priced. Hemp products last the longest in their product genres.
Hemp has the capacity to offer a unique solution to save this planet (pause and reflect on that for a second).
The 'selling out' of hemp and prevention of further critically needed public dissemination can be countered by grants given to a non-profit-organization (such as Panacea) towards hemp production. Panacea can then distribute hemp products, at cost, to provide environmental benefits in a non-profit role.
Panacea's hemp production program can also make third world countries self-sufficient by creating 50,000+ products, including the basic necessities for life, food, energy, clothes and shelter.
There are currently no internationally mandated laws in place to regulate and enforce the implementation of renewable products made of Hemp for sustainable development (much like how solar panels are allowed to remain ridiculously priced vs. the cost of a small but complex computer processor chip!). Therefore the profit motive of hemp products is to be considered legal and reasonable, thus retarding the overall capacity of Hemp to provide environmental solutions.
Facts confirm that Hemp production is far superior to any recycling program that could ever be created. Unfortunately, there is also the willing, and consciouss, suppression and bad-mouthing of Hemp to be dealt with.
Hence Hemp production needs a non-profit research and development center to result in worldwide to-capacity production, also positive education as to the worldwide benefits.
Quote- In the early 1900’s Henry Ford recognized that fossil fuels could be replaced by biomass such as hemp, cornstalks, waste paper, etc. Such biomass can be converted into methane, methanol or even petrol, and its mandated use would reduce acid rain, end sulfur based smog and reverses the greenhouse effect. Methanol can even be converted into a high octane, lead free petrol using a catalytic process developed by Georgia Tech University and Mobil Oil Corporation. Ford produced a plastic car made from hemp, wheat straw and sisal, which weighed 1000 pounds less than an equivalent size steel car and had ten times the impact strength of steel panels. It wouldn’t dent and it wouldn’t rust - no wonder after 12 years of research they suppressed it. -End quote.
Way back in the 1930’s, Henry Ford was hard at work in the alt-fuels sector, and in 1941 he constructed a hemp-fueled and hemp-bodied prototype car. The "plastic" body panels were composed of 70% cellulose fibers, including industrial hemp, mixed with a resin binder, and apparently they were pretty sturdy: Below is a guy beating on the trunk with an axe, he failed to leave a mark.
Henry Ford used hemp and other natural fibers to make the body
of this car in 1941. Source
"After twelve years of research, the Ford Motor Company has completed an experimental automobile with a plastic body. Although its design takes advantage of the properties of plastics, the streamline car does not differ greatly in appearance from its steel counterpart. The only steel in the hand-made body is found in the tubular welded frame on which are mounted 14 plastic panels, 3/16 inch thick. Composed of a mixture of farm crops and synthetic chemicals, the plastic is reported to withstand a blow 10 times as great as steel without denting. Even the windows and windshield are of plastic. The total weight of the plastic car is about 2,000 pounds, compared with 3,000 pounds for a steel automobile of the same size."- December 1941 issue of Popular Mechanics.
When you make a car strong enough to last a while, car companies are out of business. No wonder they killed the ideas.

Car Parts Made from Hemp - by Paul Louis
(Natural News) PSA, the French manufacturer for Peugeot and Citroen, has recently initiated its Green Materials Plan. This plan intends to increase car parts made from natural materials 600 percent by 2015. They are making a few parts now that are based on flax and hemp.
PSA's Green Materials Plan focuses on three areas: Biopolymers to replace plastics derived from oil; Natural fibers from flax and hemp mixed with other materials, such as wood chips; And recycled materials from shredded plastic bottles mixed with glass fibers.The plastic interior door panels made by PSA are already 50 percent flax fibers pressed with wood chips. Other parts, including mirror and windshield wiper mountings, use hemp instead of glass fiber in their material mix.Oil based plastics in cars make up to 20 percent of a car's weight on average. Of that 20 percent, only six percent is currently green or cellulose based. PSA's goal is to increase that six percent to 30 percent of the plastic used.
Hemp is legal in France, so further advances with hemp for car parts may unfold. Laurent Bechin, PSA's natural-fibers specialist, pointed out that the hemp used does not produce marijuana. "It would need about two tons of this material to produce one joint", he quipped.Hemp and flax for building cars is not new. It was actually done in the USA by Henry Ford while hemp was legal in 1941. The experimental model's body was seventy percent made of fibers from field straw, cotton fibers, hemp, and flax. The other 30 percent consisted of soy meal and bio-resin fillers.Ford's successful prototype was tagged as the vegetable or hemp car.Ford's motivation was green-based for two reasons. He wanted to increase agricultural involvement for materials in the automotive industry to improve the farmers' economic plight.
And he wanted to build lighter, stronger cars with better fuel efficiency.The car weighed 2000 pounds compared to 3000 pounds for similar all-steel automobiles. In 1941, ethanol had a higher octane and was cheaper to produce than gasoline. Ford designed the car to run on partial or complete ethanol fuels.But steel and oil magnates lobbied government to ensure Ford's vision would never manifest. - Source

Addicted to plastic
One only needs to review the facts reported in the documentary Addicted to Plastic, Released in 2007 to see the CRITICAL NEED for hemp to replace plastic. Hemp plastic has the capacity to completley replace the counter productive effects and need for normal plastic. And there are MANY.
Source
From styrofoam cups to artificial organs, plastics are perhaps the most ubiquitous and versatile material ever invented. No invention in the past 100 years has had more influence and presence than synthetics. But such progress has had a cost.For better and for worse, no ecosystem or segment of human activity has escaped the shrink-wrapped grasp of plastic.
Addicted To Plastic is a global journey to investigate what we really know about the material of a thousand uses and why there's so darn much of it. On the way we discover a toxic legacy, and the men and women dedicated to cleaning it up.Addicted To Plastic is a point-of-view style documentary that encompasses three years of filming in 12 countries on 5 continents, including two trips to the middle of the Pacific Ocean where plastic debris accumulates.
The film details plastic's path over the last 100 years and provides a wealth of expert interviews on practical and cutting edge solutions to recycling, toxicity and biodegradability. These solutions - which include plastic made from plants - will provide viewers with a new perspective about our future with plastic.Reveals the history and worldwide scope of plastics pollution, investigates its toxicity and explores solutions.-Source

FACTS show that Hemp Plastic is the only answer to a renewable industry yet why isn't more jobs, government incentive and university curricular's reflecting this?
A recent study also proves that a Bio Fuel Power Station (which could be powered by hemp) creates 3 more jobs than a coal power station.
Hemp would thus has enemies in the afore-mentioned industries and also in the nuclear industry – amongst sundry energy cartels. The best way to convince the public that Hemp is useless is to bad-mouth it, associate it with smelly hippies who never do anything and at the same time “worry” whether that bag made out of Hemp you are carrying might get a baby “high” if it were to be, say, set on fire, “by accident”. It is difficult even now, in 2008, to speak of Hemp, without people wondering if you are a drug-smoking hippie only looking to get their daughters stoned.
The mere fact that Hemp is associated with the smoking of "weed", or "marijuana" by the public, is worrying proof of this. How can the public become convinced that the growing of Hemp for fibre is not the same as growing Weed for its intoxicating effects?
What is it going to take to make the public realize that they have been purposefully made afraid of a plant that could single-handedly stop our environmental pollution – that the reason the public is afraid of Hemp is not because of the safety of our children, but because of the safety this rampant fear provides for the current industrial complexes and established corporations?
It should come as no surprise that hemp has been suppressed because of its alternative energy capacities, which would cause the cotton, petro-chemical and wood-chipping industries to become irrelevant.
This is why Hemp production needs support from non-profit organizations, which can be aided via public grants and the implementation of public laws to provide security for farmers and to ensure the benefits of Hemp.
Here is an example of the world's dirtiest city
Residents of Linfen, China, wear masks to
protect themselves from the pollution.
In the most polluted city on earth, the smog is so thick that it seems to consume its source. Iron foundries, smelting plants and cement factories loom out of the haze then disappear once more as you drive along Linfen's roads. The outlines of smoke stacks blur in the filthy mist. No sooner are the plumes of carbon and sulphur belched out than the chimneys are swallowed up again.- End quote
All Iron foundries, smelting plants and cement factories can be replaced with HEMP!. Therefore division of the Panacea centre away from the energy research and development is to be established and commissioned towards the following objectives.
Note- Regarding climate chgange solutions: CO2, which represents 50 per cent of greenhouse gases (GHGs), according to the IPCC, is converted along with other chemicals (or assimilates) into food by plants, depending on biomass production. The resulting growth and storage of carbon is identified in terms of biomass. Mature forests, such as those found in tropical regions, represent climax vegetation that absorb only small amounts of Carbon compared to new plant growth, such as hemp.- Source
Established facts on Hemp –induced sustainable development will be presented in order to confirm the benefits and necessity of Hemp.
Thus, a division of the Panacea Center, branching away from the energy research and development, is to be commissioned towards the reaching of the following objectives:
-The establishing of hemp education and hemp programs for production in third world countries, in order to produce, out of Hemp, 50,000+ sustainable renewable products, thus allowing them the security and independence via production of their own food, clothing, building materials, and energy. This division of the Panacea Center will also provide the aforementioned environmental solutions to interested parties in the western countries.
-The submitting of Hemp into usage in a bio-mass energy plant, to trial the suggestion by Dr Mark Diesendorf, who teaches sustainable development at the Institute of Environmental Studies at the University of New South Wales. This creation of Hemp Bio-Fuel Stations would reach towards a higher integrated environmental goal, providing further jobs and commencing worldwide organization to change the laws in order to support the development of open-source energy-saving implementations.
It is important that any agencies involved in protecting the environment, committed to saving the forests, etc., along with any and all food aid agencies that provide relief help and aid towards third world countries, EVALUATE THE FOLLOWING FACTS and COMPARE THEIR FINANCIAL CONTRIBUTION to what a lay-out of grants for education and development towards Hemp production, INCLUDING FOOD, could accomplish.
We must attack the source directly, not merely treat the symptoms. For additional information on how Hemp can benefit humanity, please visit the Hemp global solutions site.
UPDATE- We here at Panacea are currently looking to start growing Hemp for nutrition - to be able to donate the highly nutritional results to third world countries. Any Food Aid Agency that wishes to provide support and help towards this method of getting rid of famine, should contact Panacea to begin new, heretofore unheard-of efforts to battle worldwide malnutrition and hunger.
