Welcome
Welcome to Openeye Hemp – a website devoted to increasing awareness about hemp, Earth’s most versatile renewable natural resource. Hemp provides many of the basic necessities of life while supporting a sustainable agriculture: food, medicine, clothing, shelter, paper and fuel. Growing hemp is an important keystone in healing and restoring the natural balance of our planet’s ecology.
Treat the earth well; we do not inherit the Earth from our Ancestors, we borrow it from our Children.
– Ancient Proverb
If all fossil fuels and their derivatives, as well as trees for paper and construction were banned in order to save the planet, reverse the Greenhouse Effect and stop deforestation; then there is only one known annual renewable natural resource that is capable of providing the overall majority of the world's paper and textiles; meeting all of the world's transportation, industrial and home energy needs; simultaneously reducing pollution, rebuilding the soil, and cleaning the atmosphere all at the same time...
And that substance is - the same one that did it all before -
Cannabis Hemp...Marijuana!
