IT'S NOT JUST FASHION
IT'S SOCIAL JUSTICE

These are the characteristic values of the new US brand 40 tones.

Loriel, who takes with her the background from The Fashion Institute of Design & Merchandising, is an entrepreneur and front of the project, she uses her expertise to make everything happen.

In an interview by Forbes she talks about the brand concept after being informed by recent statistics that the majority of the owners of these cannabis industries are white.

According to Loriel, “If they don't want to give us a seat at the table, let's create ours. And that's exactly what I did when I created 40 Tons. I needed to make sure we were being represented. Not only as a black woman, but also representing the mothers, daughters, and wives of those unjustly imprisoned for ma*****na.”

MEDICINAL CANNABIS CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE FOR PARALYMPIC ATHLETES.

The drug known as Cannabidiol, was released by the WADA (World Anti-Doping Agency) for use by Paralympic athletes.

Not long ago the treatment with CBD oil was something unthinkable to happen, but the demystification of the product has been increasingly present. According to swimmer Talisson G***k, “I've known the CBD for a long time, but it was never possible to think about this in Brazil because it seemed to me to be something very distant and extremely mystified. It was not an alternative because of the difficult access, but the fact that WADA releases the oil already shows that they are keeping an eye on science and wanting to break this taboo, because there is no way not to look at the benefits that the CBD can bring”.

While many countries still see cannabis behind several negative barriers, Turkey is seeking an economic leap with the production of h**p.

The main name on the political scene in the country seeking to decriminalize cannabis is 72-year-old Abdurrahman Dilipak.

"Cannabis has a thousand benefits... This plant is generally a blessing from Allah. It cleans the air, water and soil." Said in an interview with a local conservative newspaper. Ending with the statement that alcohol is more dangerous.

H**p was once a growing tradition in the country with productions close to the Black Sea. However, with the arrival of new cannabis laws in the 1970s, production came to an end at this point.

The investment presents sustainable data to replace cotton and plastics production.
"Bringing back h**p could have a global impact as world governments look to reduce their carbon footprint. It uses far fewer resources than plastics or cotton."

The h**p project started in 2019, and is currently consolidating in the country with its results.

In this pandemic, for many Americans, stocking up on cannabis is as important as toilet paper. Serving as a trigger for companies in the industry to take their merchandise to consumers.

This information was taken from a series called ``Owning the Future ``, which reports the plight of small American businesses during the pandemic.

And that brings us to the name Nicolas MacLean, chief executive of Aether Gardens, a cannabis producer in Las Vegas.

MacLean, talks about the difficulties he faced during the pandemic:
"In the first week, the government didn't differentiate between essential and non-essential businesses."
"Dispensaries panicked, asking if they could ship the product back to us."

Can you understand the need that ma*****na can generate within society?
Given the needs, the government later considered cannabis as "essential" products for manufacture and sale. The result was positive, the United States had revenues of 17.5 billion in 2020, an increase of 46% compared to 2019.

When it comes to essential products, creative ways for a secure sale are always well regarded, and the market thanks them.
