Hemp Blocks?

Yes.

"Interest in hemp as a viable substitute for construction material is growing as developers seek greener building options. Hemp can be used in block form, as it was in the building of the sports center, or poured like traditional concrete using hempcrete, a combination of lime, hemp fibers and a chemical binder. Hemp panels can also be used."

Proto-Environmentalists "The roots of this movement go back, at least, to the mid-19th century. Some people, intellectuals from the East mostly, began to appreciate that nature was being threatened…”

Thoreau’s Harvard graduation speech "This curious world which we inhabit is more wonderful than it is convenient, more beautiful than it is useful. It is more to be admired than to be used."
