Building With Concrete Releases CO2 - Hempcrete Absorbs CO2 (A Greenhouse Gas that Causes Global Warming) The concrete industry alone makes up 8 percent of global planet-warming pollution.

Biden cements climate manufacturing deal...

One of the great climate ironies is that more extreme weather necessitates more resilient infrastructure. More resilient infrastructure requires more concrete, and concrete releases a lot of planet-warming carbon into the atmosphere.

That means one of the most resilient and cost-effective ways to adapt developed areas to extreme weather and rising seas is actually making climate change worse.


POLITICO’s E&E News reporter Kelsey Brugger writes that the concrete industry alone makes up 8 percent of global planet-warming pollution and, advocates say, has lagged behind other carbon-intensive sectors in going green.

Hemp Absorbs Carbon Dioxide... All Day, Every Day... Even More Than Trees!


Make Sure to Write an Email to the Author askibell@eenews.net telling her That Hempcrete Exists and Solves the Problem She Writes About.


Carbon Dioxide Absorbing.

We believe your walls should not just keep you comfortable, they should help clean the environment.

The materials used to create hempcrete biocomposites absorb CO2 during the curing process. Additionally, CO2 is absorbed and offset during the life cycle of the industrial hemp plant. Few decisions in your construction program can take as much carbon out of the atmosphere as deciding to build with hempcrete.


7 Great Uses for Industrial Hemp

Of all the uses for hemp, even if you only have a cursory knowledge of the subject you're probably away of hemp fabric, clothing and paper, but here's one that's an eye-opener: Hemp provides all sorts of good building materials. You can make it into insulation as companies in the Netherlands and Ireland are doing. It can be used to make engineered building products like fiberboard and pressboard, and even be used to make 'hempcrete', a stronger, lighter, and more environmentally friendly version of concrete.

During the 1950s Americans went into a Mad Panic about Communists taking over the world. We built thousands of Nuclear Missiles and Fallout Shelters. The US Congress had witch hunts (Joe McCarthy-HUAC) to expose "Commies" who worked in The Hollywood Movie business and blacklisted folksingers that were leading our young people astray with Labor Union Organizing songs.


During the height of this hysteria Vice President Richard Nixon went on Television and explained "The Domino Principle" while pointing to a map of Asia. His theory was...
