The same material used in hempcrete, hemp shiv promises to revolutionize humanity's use of materials. Researchers have been using these shavings to extract carbon nanosheets, which can be combined to produce substitutes for plastic and other moldable materials, with profound impacts on industry.<\/span><\/p>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

The world is immersed in plastic: on the surface and at the bottom of the ocean, in the organisms of all living beings on Earth, and in our digestive system, this material has been accumulating. The revolution that occurred in the 20th century, with the production of all kinds of material from oil, presented its price. We have cluttered the world with a material that never degrades, while filling the atmosphere with carbon gases.<\/span><\/p>\n

Due to its impressive ability to produce biomass quickly, hemp has great potential to be part of the solution to this problem. Hemp shives, the same ones used in hempcrete, can be used in the production of microscopic carbon structures, which can be employed in a new generation of bioplastics that truly return to nature. Imagine stopping the accumulation of plastic in waters and soil, replacing it with a material that also sequesters the greenhouse gases that accumulate in the atmosphere.<\/span><\/p>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
