by strict implementation of policy on the local
level.
Perhaps there is still room for an organic
solution to rise from the soil.
Australians could rally their representatives to
take the bold step of legalising the cultivation
of cannabis plants, thus permitting the
industrial production of hemp on a wide scale.
Australia could be the new hemp mecca,
people could still buy their clothes from
Australia (albeit made from a different
material), and the new crop would act as less
of a drain upon the fragile Murray-Darling
ecosystem.
Do you think Australians should review their
regulatory policy to allow for the cultivation
of hemp as a substitute crop for resource-
intensive cotton?
