Nebraska Gubernatorial Candidate For Hemp Ethanol

Seeing Red: Nebraska | Sustainable Energy | Wind and Biofuels: "[Nebraska Democratic gubernatorial candidate David Hahn ] had a heads-up on what I was interested in discussing: topics like nuclear power, ethanol, the state's 'least cost' energy law, the role of wind power and tax incentives for hybrid cars. I also asked him about peak oil and global warming. He even surprised me by talking about hemp farming, which while legal in Canada, Europe and China, is strictly controlled to the point of non-existence in the United States on the assumption – mistaken in my view and apparently in Hahn's as well – that it would encourage illegal pot production. Governor Schwarzenegger in California just vetoed a bill that would have made hemp farming legal there." -- By Bill Moore
