The rise of Depression and the Cannabis Response
Cannabis of course is regarded as marijuana and pot. Always be associated with drug users and stoners. But if you can put away that stigma, we find that cannabis has four times the cellulose value as corn, making it a potentially good plant for ethanol production.
Now then, personally I will not do drugs or smoke pot so this article is without consideration of this stoners in the world or their potential support of this plant for ethanol. If cannabis grows so well all around the globe it does make sense to look into its use for the making of ethanol.
If cannabis can be manufactured into Ethanol then we need to modify it to be successful better and use those genetic differences which permit low water in production to insure that we don’t get price spikes in times of drought in the ethanol we use for if you want. Additionally if the plant can be used to “get high” then we’ve got to modify it so that wont occur or that the leaching into the soil or waterways does not contain high levels of THC as it would be problematic.
If we further modify this cannabis weed then we need to make it with terminating seeds until we know the things we have done, other wise it develop into a “super weed” and take over natural cannabis because close genetic types of weeds. In net think tank recently a gentleman mentioned that;
“Ethanol/bio diesel is to be the fuel associated with the future for that rotary, eccentric crank, 4 and 2 cycle engines running our cars boats trains and generator sets etc. I am aware it burns far cleaner than the crude oil based hydrocarbon heavy fuels we use at present, and will minimize the polluting of the environment.”
