Henry Ford built a car out of hemp plastic that ran on hemp fuel almost a century ago. Ford's 1941 bioplastic Model T was made of hemp, flax, wheat, and spruce pulp, which made the car lighter than fiberglass and ten times tougher than steel, wrote the New York Times on February 2, 1941. The car ran on ethanol made from hemp or other agricultural waste. (Even though Ford was an American Nazi who received medals from Hitler he did at least one good thing)
