In a previous post I talked about marijuana and its uses as a medicine. In this post I am going to talk about other uses marijuana could have if it were legal.
A Food
The seeds of a marijuana plant can be eaten. They contain essential amino acids and fatty acids our bodies need. Marijuana seeds could help world hunger. Not only could humans use it as a food, the seeds can be used to feed livestock. Feeding the seeds to livestock could help with the issues we have raising cattle and give us a better organic meat.
A Fuel
Cannabis can grow easily and naturally all over the US. The seeds from the plant make hemp seed oil. This oil is a bio-diesel fuel and could help end our dependency on foreign oil. Because it can grow naturally all over our county, we could have a possible endless supply. Plants produce the seeds, some of which could be eaten, others used for oil, and the rest planted to make more plants that will make more seeds, and so on.
A Renewable Resource
As I said cannabis can grow naturally anywhere in the US, thus making it renewable. Hemp comes from the stalk of the plant and has many uses. Can be used for paper, possibly helping with deforestation. Hemp can be used to make clothing and fabrics. It is also a good replacement for wood products like studs, beams, and posts.

Get up, stand up, stand up for your rights. Get up, stand up, don't give up the fight. I had no idea that marijuana had so many nutritional values to it (I thought that brownie tasted funny). I also didn't know what a valuable commodity it could be, other than for recreational purposes. Man, Jamaica must have a great self-sustaining economy. Actually, they're probably too high to know these things.
