Petroleum is Capital Intensive


It takes Hundreds of Millions of Dollars to Locate and Pump Petroleum out of the Earth.

It takes Tens of Billions of Dollars to Build and Operate a Facility to Refine Petroleum.

Facts about Oil Refineries and Your Health:

  • Oil refineries dump thousands of pounds of toxic chemicals into communities every day!
  • Many toxic chemicals released by refineries into the environment cause cancer, birth defects, and serious health problems.
  • Odors from refineries can be more than a nuisance, such as hydrogen sulfide, which can cause serious health impacts or death.
  • Leaks in equipment, oil spills and flares can dump dangerous pollution anywhere.

We don't have to use petroleum. Biodiesel is the solution!

Petroleum's Role in Hemp Prohibition

Popularizing an obscure Mexican slang word, these powerful interests -- including William Randolph Hearst (the namesake of "yellow journalism"), who had bought up entire forests for his vast chain of newspapers -- orchestrated a nationwide campaign that played on racism and wildly lurid and inaccurate reports in order to prohibit hemp.

They said that a deadly new drug called "marijuana" caused users to go insane and uncontrollably kill their family and friends. We call that misinformation campaign "Reefer Madness" (click here to see a Hemp TV clip from the movie) , after a 1938 movie popularizing this hoax. The basis of marijuana prohibition is filled with lies and overt racism. Everyone knew what hemp was, but very few understood that marijuana was hemp when it was prohibited in 1937.
