Hemp Face Masks – A Sustainable Solution to COVID-19 Masks?

There is the possibility of health care workers decontaminating face masks that can be reused, such as the N95 models, which would reduce environmental waste by 75%. And even if the pandemic is already almost over in many parts of the globe, health care workers still need to consume a large supply of them.
