And by doing that, the price of wood goes down because of supply/demand. The less you need wood, the lower its price. This isn't about replacing wood with hemp. It's about supplementing wood construction materials with hemp materials to keep overall costs down.
Bingo!! I thought no matter what I said, he wasn't really comprehending.
