"The environmental benefits of textile, paper and oil production from hemp 
have been tested in academic research. A study carried out by the 
University of Melbourne found that hemp production for textiles, oilseed 
and paper as an alternative to cotton textiles, oil and forestry would 
increase economic efficiency whilst reducing the ecological footprint of 
production of these goods by up to 50%."
