We have plastics produced from hemp as well as wood products. Sustainable I think. Also hemp is good for soil and even food for livestock and humans.

Why is there no possibility of combining animals and plants production since one compliments the other in production? Seems the most economical and ecological way to me. This chemical science has been largely unhealthy for everything. Maybe we need to study nature better instead of more failed experiments against ourselves and the environment.

If we want to know about the risks to the environment, we should be studying the greatest extinction on the face of the earth which is only about 250 million years ago. There must be some weather indications etc that we could learn from. We don't have to be quite so speculative.

I don't understand our graphs because on the previous graph we had the average temperature around -2, and now we show temperature at a -10 or more. The first graph was for 800,000 years and then the graph for 100,000 years. To me the should be more similar.
