Draft 1, Begun 12.10.19
Just a very incomplete, simple list of possibilities is here now.
Site Visitors and Logged In Users please add comments to this outline (1) to list additional practical uses and (2) to better explain how the practical uses listed here are helpful, economical, etc. I (jgw) will incorporate your comments into this outline to make it a more informative article. You are also welcome to log in and submit your own article(s) on this topic. You can also log in and submit web links about this topic.
Some practical uses of Hemp are:
- Hemp for food or food supplements. (more information needed)
- Hemp plant leftovers from other uses can make cheaper bio-fuel.
Cultivating algae to create oxygen by it's natural photosynthesis and later converting algae plants into gasoline is too expensive. Cultivating corn to be used to create ethanol raises the price of corn-based foods world-wide and thus is economically and socially damaging. - Hemp, the non-hallucinogenic parts of a marijuana plant, makes stronger rope than rope from cotton or other plant fibers.
- Hemp and THC in it can be used for medicine, if it become legal again to research these uses of THC.
The Basic Concept of an Alternative Economy

Things need to get done in the neighborhood, in the community, the city, county and state all of which has been impoverished by the Great Recession of 2008 that I believe was deliberately caused by Wall Street and the super-rich who control it; a Great Recession which continues to this day in most "first world countries" around the world! Focusing here just at the "grass-roots level," usually one person cannot do these things, perform the necessary tasks, all alone. Organizing an effective small to not-so-small group of interested "do good" people to perform the necessary tasks is difficult. Assuming one could attract the competent people for the work, how can a group of people pay themselves for working together on neighborhood and community improvement projects? Can people wait for stingy bankers and slow moving state and local government agencies, or for non-profit organizations to help? Why not create a local alternative economy and get the work done much sooner than, typically, so much later?
In so many US, EU, Canadian and other nations it is illegal to print money, the official legal tender, of any kind. Yet the legal money economy -- and the people who use it and have less of it -- are what suffer most in a recession, depression, or when there is extreme inflation or deflation.
But many of the workers in society, the professionals, the skilled laborers, and their talents remain willing and able to work in a region and help improve a neighborhood or community, whatever is the state of the legal economy. What can we-the-people do when government fails, falls short, or is stalled?

Upgrading this WLTRes site's CMS from Joomla v1.5.x to Joomla v2.5.x
And this effort takes some time to plan and practice. So the Maha Mayan Solstice holidays (days before and since the 12/21/12 mislabeled end-of-the-world) seem like a good time for that.
I, JGW the RKSeva web site creator, developer and thus far the sole content provider have not "really worked" on adding content to this site since about mid 2011. I changed my focus to work 3/4 to full-time, on-spec (for free) to build-out and enrich content on another Joomla! powered web site I created, CAGreenIDEAS.org. I could not remain passive and willfully powerless and passive about the horrific political polarization occurring in the US Congress, dramatically increased when the Republicans won the majority of seats in the US House of Representatives in the Nov. 2010 election. I believed as do many progressives that the Democratic-Republican "polarization" is the result of over 30 years of increasingly astute and effective radical right wing propaganda in the USA. The threats to our USA democracy were the most dire I have ever seen them be in my 6 decades long lifetime. They became fascistic during the George W. Bush years 2000-2008 including his illegal military invasion of Iraq after 9/11 and in my opinion the carefully planned, long intended Global Financial System collapse of 2007-08, triggered by Wall Street casino-style investing, and the resulting Global Great Recession which continues to this day.
The Nov. 2012 General Election is now over. I and other Green Party members are learning our latest set of lessons in hopes we will do better next time. I can now focus more on enriching content and features on this web site. Therefore:
- The state of this web site and it's content remains largely unchanged since mid 2011. That will now change more frequently and noticeably.
- This web site will under go an upgrade from the increasingly archaic and as of Sept. 2012 the no longer supported version 1.5.x of the Joomla! CMS. Version 2.5.x is now suitably stable and the Joomla! third party extension (add-on code) developers have caught up in their upgrade activities so that a version 2.5.x site with all the old v1.5.x features and many new features is now more practical for site owner-operators like me to create and deploy to the public.
- I will be performing the Joomla! site upgrades in the remainder of November, 2012, through December 2012, and if necessary into early January 2013. You, the site visitor and any site users will see the difference when I think I have a suitably stable version 2.5x copy of this site ready.
- Many of the site navigation features I added to CAGreenIDEAS.org in past months will soon appear on this web site.
- PS: I need to fix the "very big home page font size" problem I accidentally introduced to this web site in the last few months.
Happy Winter Solstice Holidays!
