Turns out UC Berkeley's got an approach for brewing cannabinoids (and I think terpenes) from yeast, and a company in Germany has a provisional patent application to brew cannabinoids from bacteria. We could be absorbing carbon ("sequestering" carbon) and coal ash acid rain with mostly fields of industrial hemp for which there are indeed thousands of uses.

Technically, the 2013 farm bill (signed into law in 2014) authorized growing hemp for state-registered research purposes. https://www.votehemp.com/laws-and-legislation/federal-legisl...
