Chris Fowlie discusses the use of hemp to replace the plastic component of wool carpet, and weed mats in the Manawatu Gorge;

I wonder if hemp could be used to make biodegradable hay bail wrap for farms, to replace the huge amount of soft plastic they use every year.

"A large federally-funded study coming out of [US]America, published in Nature, 'marijuana users have enhanced cognitive abilities' ... [they] analysed brain imaging and cognitive data, from 37929 people. The cannabis consumers consistently outperformed the non-users in the cognitive tests. They had brain network characteristics typically associated with younger brains."

#ChrisFowlie goes all through a list of false positives that can occur with the government's proposed roadside drug testing tech;

"Speaking of going to the dentist, if you have some lidocaine you'll test positive for cocaine. If you're on a painkiller of some sort, you'll test positive for heroin. If you're on Ritalin you'll test positive for meth."

"It goes on. If you're prescribed sleeping pills you'll test positive to benzodiazepines. So as well as the inaccuracy of the test, you also get these false positives to other substances."
