P.A.E.P.T.

Is there a single plant that could possibly save the world? Because of its adaptability, this plant can grow virtually anywhere and, was amongst the first plants to be cultivated by humans. It has been grown and cultivated by many cultures for thousands of years. Yet, today people are fined, or even jailed in the U.S. for growing this plant because it is illegal. Lawmakers fail to see that this sole plant probably has more uses than any other material on earth. This plant is hemp; and the potential it has to help sustain our environment and economy could be endless through legalization.

  1. Right on. I got some good papers on this last semester. I esp. like the angle of approaching it as a "plant." What does PAEPT stand for?
