Hemp hope is real, thanks to COP26 action on Article 6
What is this Article 6 of which you speak? It was part of the Paris Agreement from 2015, dealing with carbon markets. There are currently dozens of different carbon markets, in the EU and in China, for example. This agreement enables international sales of Voluntary Carbon Market products, ensuring that carbon offsets are not double-counted. So any person or business can voluntarily pay for carbon offsets anywhere in the world, with full transparency and trust.
This sounds exactly like the Hempoffset plan?
Yes, this is what we wanted. We’re glad that our COP26 campaign helped in some small way. We would like to applaud all the COP26 activists and delegates from all over the world for their dedication and perseverance. China and the US are working together on emissions now, and coal will ‘phase-down’. Next, we’d like to see hemp biofuel pellets used in coal-burning power stations!
We cannot solve problems with the same thinking we used to create them.
