The cannabis plant has been cultivated by humans for thousands of years; it’s history with domestication dates back to 8,000 BC. But in recent times, this once-treasured plant has become subject to scorn — largely thanks to draconian and authoritative government policies. There are many misconceptions about the cannabis plant: The plant’s medicinal uses have been covered up, and our own government suggests that cannabis has no medicinal value. But the truth is that cannabis can do more than just give people a “high.”
Cannabis and hemp offer a wide variety of uses both as medicine, as material and as a path towards healing our planet. Science continues to demonstrate that the cultivation of hemp and cannabis plants is good for the environment, and studies have consistently confirmed the plant’s medicine uses.
Cannabis can heal the planet
As Derek Henry, founder of Healing The Body, explains in a new video for Brighteon.com, the cannabis plant has a wide array of industrial uses — and is more eco-friendly than a lot of our more “modern” options. For example, parts of the plant can be used to make paper, fabric and other goods.
