      abstract = {The cannabis plant, as a hemp, could contribute better  than previously thought to achieving the goals of the UN  Sustainable Development Report, the so-called Agenda 2030  and its 17 SDGs (Sustainable Development Goals). From a  health perspective, its medicinal use is the main focus,  but it is also used in cosmetic products and in food  offerings for humans and animals. In the context of the  increasing climate crisis, hemp helps especially to cope  with the CO2 problem: in agriculture by binding the CO2  similar to reforestation, in industry as a recyclable raw  material substitute for example as a plastic substitute, in  clothing, in technology or in construction. At the moment,  unfortunately, the immense prices and high demand show a  different picture, from citizens who want to but can't or  aren't allowed to, from farmers who have to overcome  immense bureaucratic hurdles to an industry that is  deterred from investing by complex rules and laws. The  springer essential shows how this potential could also be  realized in Germany. The content The plant Cannabis Sativa  L. The sustainable benefits of hemp The possible  consequences of economic use The four basic conditions for  legalization The author Jonas M. Westphal has already given  lectures on the sensibility of legalizing cannabis in  Germany and Europe during his logistics studies.

The  translation was done with the help of artificial  intelligence. A subsequent human revision was done  primarily in terms of content.},
