Abstract

PurposeThe present work highlights the outstanding properties of Cannabis sativa that can be harnessed for various utilitarian functions and its climate friendly properties.Design/methodology/approachIn this paper, the authors reviewed current research on all possible utilities from household work to manufacturing of various products that are environmentally sustainable. The authors have presented some of their research on this materials and also exploration of hemp as an archaeological material based on the findings from wall paintings of Ellora caves.FindingsThere are references of hemp use in mixing with earthen/lime plaster of western Indian monuments. Around 1,500 years of Ellora’s earthen plaster, despite harsh climatic conditions, survived due to the presence of hemp in the plaster that adds durability, fibrosity and its capacity to ward off insects and control humidity. Furthermore, the outstanding quality of Cannabis as carbon sequestrant was harnessed by Indians of ancient times in Ellora mural paintings.Research limitations/implicationsThis work discusses some relevant literature on the potential use of hempcrete aligned with Agenda 2030 of sustainable development goals.Practical implicationsThere are several research going on in producing sustainable materials using hemp that have the least environmental impact and can provide eco-friendly solutions.Social implicationsThe authors impress upon the readers about multifarious utility of the hemp and advices for exploration of this material to address many environmental issues.Originality/valueThis paper presents both review of the existing papers and some components coming directly from their laboratory investigations.

大麻（大麻）--一种用于遗产保护和可持续环境的生态友好材料

设计/方法/方法在本文中，作者回顾了目前对从家务劳动到制造各种环境可持续产品的所有可能用途的研究。作者介绍了他们对这种材料的一些研究，并根据埃洛拉石窟壁画的发现，探讨了麻作为一种考古材料的用途。尽管气候条件恶劣，但埃洛拉石窟的土灰泥仍保存了约 1,500 年，这是因为灰泥中含有大麻，大麻增加了灰泥的耐久性、纤维性及其驱虫和控制湿度的能力。此外，古代印度人在埃洛拉壁画中也利用了大麻作为固碳剂的卓越品质。研究局限性/影响本作品讨论了与 2030 年议程可持续发展目标一致的大麻混凝土潜在用途的一些相关文献。社会影响作者向读者介绍了大麻的多种用途，并建议探索这种材料，以解决许多环境问题。原创性/价值本文既回顾了现有的论文，也介绍了直接来自其实验室调查的一些内容。

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
