Wait, Why Are We Still Not Using Hemp Plastic, Yet?

At last 60% of all plastic products in the world are made from polymer resins. Everyday products like plastic bottles are made from the polymer resin known as Polyethylene terephthalate (PET). Hemp plastic is promising, however, the right technology to use in the mass creation of this product is not ready. Advocates for a less polluted world believe that someday in the future, customers would be able to purchase products packaged in 100% hemp-based containers.
