When compared to hemp as a fiber crop, cotton comes in a distant second. Cotton requires more water and pesticides than hemp and produces less fiber and far less wood than hemp. Cotton also absorbs far less greenhouse carbon than hemp.

The fibers in hemp run the length of the stalk. Hemp wood weighs 6 times the weight of the fiber. The hemp wood is 77% cellulose, which can be made into endless products, fuel (wood alcohol), plastics, paper products, building materials, that are shown in other rooms.
