Dismayed by the the lack of hemp on this site

07-11-2007 11:31

this is regarding the serious lack of hemp in the environmental movement. although it would also help just about every other grassroots movement. i would have thought that being alternative media, there'd be something on hemp. i was especially surprised by the sister site  http://climateimc.org/
