Ford Motor Cars Made From Weed

Derek,

Here's an interesting little clip.

Henry Ford once made a car out of organic (hemp) plastic that was much lighter and stronger than the materials we use now.

It was biodegradable and made from renewable natural resources.

Ford proclaimed he would &quot;grow automobiles from the soil.&quot;

I wonder whatever happened to that idea...

The term &quot;weed&quot; implies something wild and unwanted. Hemp is not a &quot;weed&quot;. In fact it was one of early US most valuable crops. It's only over the last hundred years or less they started a criminalization project with it and spread the propaganda that the plant is all about smoking
