Recently in an online think tank forum a gentleman mentioned that Hemp contains about 4 times the cellulose value to make Ethanol as Corn. Oh I can hear the critics now; "Just Say No to Ethanol!" or "This is your car on drugs!" In fact when I first heard it, I thought well here is a some pothead who has some drug induced inner thought, wishing to share it with the world online while getting his fix of the Munchies, with a large pepperoni pizza and enough Doritos to last the night?Well it turns out this gentleman who mentioned this is right? Can you believe it; that is just too funny. Turn drugs into fuel; everyone wins? Although there are some other issues to this of course for instance another think tanker asks:"Well how much water does it take to grow hemp? If it takes too much that could be an issue too you know, droughts?"Of course if Monsanto Corporation could make terminator hemp seeds which would use less water and provide 20 times the cellulose value that would be very good for Ethanol? In fact this conversation went on for quite a while and then another Think Tanker stated:"I was listening to the Art Bell show one night and someone brought up this point about Hemp and Ethanol. At first I thought the guy was just some stoner who called in on the late-night talk show, yet after listening for a minute or two, he did bring up some good points because of the texture and density of the plant itself."You know if we can take Hemp or other such weeds and do this, maybe we can take away some of the sage brush each year to prevent fires or the underbrush in the forests, some is 120 tons per acre and that is a lot of fuel making for potential forest fires. If we could remove it and make fuel and simultaneously keep the forests healthy it might be a good plan. Harvest what is already there instead of letting it dry out to rot? This is an interesting conversation indeed, the kind of out of the box thinking which is intriguing to all. Consider this in 2006.Lance Winslow - Online Think Tank forum board.
