In this episode I begin my plant fibre study with hemp. I discuss its history and use and how it spins and knits.
Also, I look into what happens to sheep who are raised for wool. Is it a totally benign process?
In the vegan segment I touch on what happens in slaughterhouses and how it affects the workers who do the killing.
