The highest purpose of technology is not to replace humanity, but to help humanity become more fully human. Our Information Age deserves smart structures and infrastructures that amply serves the needs of Earth, life and technology.
As AI continues to grow, so does the demand for data centers. As currently designed, they are toxic and greedy.
The challenge is not whether we build them, it is how we print them.
I first touched the internet in 1970, when it was only available to the military and colleges. Been surfing data tsunamis ever since. Artificial Intelligence is one of the most powerful tools humanity has ever created. Since we are already in relationships with it, we should house it in a way that reflect our highest levels of engineering, environmental stewardship and community responsibility. Let us wisely upgrade our tool box.
Many of today's facilities are still based on old Agricultural and Industrial Age construction methods with horrific results.
We now have the opportunity to design and construct specifically for the Information Age.
Now is the time to, as Jarett Gross' site coined the phrase with his heroic work, "Automate Construction." Print environmentally conscious, self sufficient data centers. If you don't know or want to know more about construction printing, watch some of Jarett's videos.
Imagine data centers printed vertically in remote locations using automated construction systems, many hemp materials and integrated environmental technologies.
Key design considerations include:
* Faraday shielding and advanced electromagnetic management
* Hempcrete structural systems for fire resistance, insulation and carbon reduction
* ABS hemp-plastic composite layers for strength and durability
* Professional-grade acoustic isolation to reduce noise pollution
* Clean energy integration including solar, hydro, geothermal, magnetic-energy research, graphene-enhanced systems and future technologies
* Atmospheric Water Generation (water-from-air systems) to reduce stress on local water supplies (can be printed to enhance local water supply)
* Advanced water purification (Hydreva magnetic water treatment technology)
* Shock-absorbing foundation and if necessary other layer(s)
* Community benefit and profit-sharing models that help local populations participate in the prosperity these facilities create.
The goal is simple: Solve the problems at the level of cause. Print solutions into our structures and infrastructures too that enrich the environments they are in.
We cannot afford to solve one problem while creating ten more. Our challenge is not whether we have the technology to transform this crisis into an opporunity of equal or greater benefit. Our challenge is whether we have the wisdom to deploy it responsibly. I asure you, we do. The will is up to you and me.
"Strike a pose! Let's get to it!" - PRINT - PRINT IN HEMP!
Nothing is impossible — not even balancing technological advancement with environmental responsibility.
Artificial Intelligence is becoming one of the most powerful tools humanity has ever created. Yet the infrastructure supporting A.I., especially massive data centers, is creating serious environmental concerns involving:
• Extreme electricity consumption • Heavy water usage for cooling • Noise pollution • Heat generation • Electronic waste • Land use pressures • Questions about long-term electromagnetic exposure and environmental impact
At the same time, A.I. is too valuable to abandon. The challenge is not whether A.I. should exist, it is how to build the systems supporting it responsibly.
One possible direction is the development of environmentally conscious next-generation data centers using advanced construction methods and sustainable materials.
Imagine data centers built with:
• 3D construction printing for speed, precision, reduced labor danger, and reduced waste • Hempcrete for fire resistance, insulation, carbon storage, and sound dampening • ABS hemp plastic composite wall layers for waterproofing, durability, and structural protection • Integrated soundproofing designed to recording studio standards • Atmospheric water generation systems (“water from air”) to reduce strain on local water supplies • Dual clean-energy systems combining solar, geothermal, hydro, wind, and future experimental energy systems • Faraday shielding integrated into the building structure to reduce electromagnetic leakage and protect sensitive electronics • Rural placement strategies paired with sustainable agriculture and local workforce development
The goal is not simply to build more data centers. The goal is to build intelligent infrastructure that works in harmony with the environment, people and technology.
Many of these technologies already exist individually. The opportunity is integrating them into one coherent environmental design strategy.
Humanity and A.I. working together responsibly could help solve problems that once seemed impossible.
We cannot afford the luxury of a technologically advanced but environmentally careless world.
• The Moses West Foundation
Founded by veteran and atmospheric water generation pioneer Moses West, the organization develops mobile “water from air” systems that extract clean drinking water directly from atmospheric humidity. The technology has been deployed in disaster relief zones, underserved communities, and emergency response operations as an alternative water resilience strategy where traditional infrastructure is limited or compromised.
• Hemp Traders
Founded by hemp pioneer Larry Serbin, Hemp Traders has been one of the longest-running suppliers and advocates of industrial hemp products in the United States. The company has helped educate the public and emerging industries about the practical uses of hemp in textiles, composites, construction materials, paper, food, body care products, and environmentally sustainable manufacturing. Hemp Traders has also played an important role in preserving and expanding awareness of hemp as a renewable agricultural resource with applications in green building and ecological infrastructure development.
Post your thoughts both on this environmentally conscious solution and pratical ways to implement it, i.e. sufficiently vetted to reach International Building Codes standards.
Our world is accelerating toward a new wireless era—one defined not just by faster speeds, but by AI‑native networks, massive data flows and unprecedented electromagnetic density.
Industry leaders are aligning to bring 6G online by the end of the decade, with AI at its core. Qualcomm’s leadership frames 6G as the wireless backbone for an age of autonomous AI agents, predicting that global cellular traffic could grow up to sevenfold by 2034, with AI accounting for nearly a third of that load.
The U.S. government has made its intentions unmistakably clear regarding increasing our chronic exposure to elevated radiation / EMF levels without sufficient health or environmental impact considerations.
The question is what about life on earth? Are we sure our bodies can handle this much cumulative load accellerated over the last 200 years.
This is not a slow evolution.
This is a global race and the electromagnetic environment around us is about to intensify dramatically with technology trumping the truth of what if any impact this is having on our health, environment and vibrational world.
Hemp‑based materials are stepping into the spotlight as natural allies in creating healthier, more resilient living spaces as we automate constructionusing 3d printing and otherinnovative building techniques, printing in hemp we can create ample, environmentally conscious housing that is both afforadable and self sufficient.
🌿 Hemp: A Regenerative Shield for an AI‑Dense World
As 6G networks expand, they will rely on higher‑frequency spectrum bands and dense AI‑driven radio access networks. These networks will be embedded everywhere—homes, vehicles, public spaces, and even the objects we wear.
Communities are asking a deeper question:
How do we protect human biology in an era of constant electromagnetic exposure?
Hemp offers three powerful pathways:
Hempcrete – a breathable, fire‑resistant biocomposite
Hemp Graphene – a conductive nanomaterial capable of EMF attenuation
Hemp Fabrics – natural fibers engineered into shielding textiles
Together, they form a regenerative toolkit for building EMF‑aware, climate‑resilient, AI‑era architecture.
🧱 Hempcrete: The First Layer of Natural Defense
Hempcrete is not a metal shield—but it does create a healthier interior environment through:
Thermal mass that stabilizes indoor temperatures
High breathability that reduces mold and VOC accumulation
Fire resistance validated through formal testing
Its mineral‑rich lime matrix and dense cellulose structure can help reduce certain forms of ambient interference and create calmer indoor environments compared to steel‑framed, drywall‑based construction.
In a world where 6G infrastructure will be everywhere, even small reductions in interior EMF noise matter.
NOTE: WE ARE CARETAKERS FOR THE PLANET. THERE IS MORE THAN JUST HUMANS TO CONDISER IN SOLVING THIS PROBLEM. REMEMBER, EVERY CRISIS CARRIES WITH IT AN OPPORTUNITY OF EQUAL OR GREATER BENEFIT. LET'S GO FOR THE GREATER!
⚡ Hemp‑Derived Graphene: The Game‑Changer
Graphene—especially graphene derived from hemp bast fiber—is:
Highly conductive
Lightweight
Capable of absorbing and dissipating electromagnetic waves
Regenerative and low‑impact
When added to plasters, paints, coatings, or hemp‑ABS composites, hemp graphene can create Faraday‑like shielding layers that:
Reflect EMF
Absorb RF energy
Dissipate electromagnetic waves as heat
This is the same class of technology being explored for aerospace, military shielding and next‑gen electronics.
As 6G is deployed electromagnetic load will increase dramatically. Nvidia and other telecom leaders emphasize that 6G will serve as the “nervous system” of the AI economy, enabling billions of intelligent devices. I'm still looking for the details of what this increased electromagnet load dramatic increase will do to living beings.
Hemp graphene gives communities a renewable, non‑toxic, scalable way to build protective architecture without relying on heavy metals or petrochemical composites.
In a 6G world where billions of AI‑connected devices will constantly communicate, wearable and interior shielding becomes a new frontier of personal autonomy.
🌍 Hemp‑Based 3D Printing: Regenerative Architecture for the 6G Era
As the electromagnetic environment intensifies, the way we build our homes becomes just as important as the materials we choose. Hemp‑based 3D printing is emerging as one of the most transformative pathways for creating environmentally conscious, self‑sustaining, EMF‑aware structures that honor both human biology and planetary health.
Large‑format 3D printers are also extruding geopolymers like hempcrete, hemp‑graphene composites, and hemp‑based bioplastics into organic, curved, structurally efficient forms that outperform traditional box‑shaped buildings in strength, energy efficiency, and durability.
🌀 Dome & Cylinder Architecture: Nature’s Most Efficient Shapes
Dome and cylindrical structures offer:
Superior wind and seismic resilience
Natural airflow and temperature regulation
Reduced material usage
A calmer interior EMF profile due to continuous curvature
These shapes harmonize with the body, the environment, and the electromagnetic landscape—creating sanctuaries in an era of AI‑dense wireless activity.
☀️ Clean Magnetic & Solar Energy Systems
Hemp‑based 3D‑printed homes can integrate:
Solar roofs or solar skins
Magnetic energy systems that harvest ambient or rotational fields
Battery‑free micro‑grids for resilience and autonomy
These systems offer:
Clean, renewable power
Reduced dependence on centralized grids
Quiet, low‑maintenance operation
As AI‑native networks expand, energy independence becomes a form of sovereignty—and hemp architecture supports that sovereignty from the ground up.
💧 Atmospheric Water Generation: A Greenhouse at the Heart of the Home
Imagine stepping into the center of your home and finding a lush greenhouse, fed by a large‑format atmospheric water generator (AWG) that pulls clean water directly from the air.
Hemp‑based 3D‑printed homes can be designed with:
A central atrium or garden room
A high‑capacity AWG integrated into the structure
Natural light wells
Vertical growing systems...
This transforms the home into a living ecosystem, where water, food, air, and energy circulate in a regenerative loop.
A continuous layer of hemp‑reinforced bioplastic can:
Make the structure waterproof from foundation to roof
Protect against mold, pests, and weathering
Add structural rigidity
Improve longevity
Provide high impact resistance without toxic petrochemical coatings
This creates a protective outer shell that is strong, sustainable, and aligned with regenerative design principles.
🔥 The Call to Action
In my opinion, we have no choice. We must lower our chronic exposure to elevated radiation / EMF levels.
As 6G accelerates toward global deployment—and as the White House pushes for U.S. leadership in AI‑native wireless infrastructure—communities must rise with equal urgency.
Hemp is not just a crop. It is a shield, a building block, and a pathway to sovereignty in a world increasingly shaped by invisible frequencies.
The future is being built right now—by telecom giants, by governments, and by AI itself.
But we can build our future too. A future rooted in regeneration, protection and natural intelligence.
Make no mistake about it. Jack Herer is still right about hemp's ability to help save our planet. Wisely using the hemp plant, male, female and trans, we can make hunger, homelessness, thirst and energy bills ancient concepts as we include hemp foods,and greenhouse rooms into housing structures and public gardens; water from air panels (atmospheric water generators) plus free energy systems i.e. magnetic, solar, hemp graphene printed into structures. The peace pipe / medical marijuana, can help reduce our physical and mental health issues.
We Have No Choice — And That’s Our Greatest Opportunity
I first touched a computer in 1970 and am addicted to technology ever since. The result is four significant seizures, the first a grand mal in 2014 that left me legally dead for a spell. During that experience I saw the light and went to the gates of Heaven. There was a prude at the gates so I was sent down to hell. When I got to the gates of Hell, a huge wave came over the wall. It dropped down a scroll that said the devil has a restraining order against me. He has other restraining orders for good souls. So I was sent back with the mission to understand how to safely interact with technology. JOY!
After more than a decade of research, reverse engineering the problem back to the balance point, I can see how we have no choice but to understand the crisis that over radiating ourselves is causing, while incorporating nutritional fortification and radiation / EMF shielding.
I am blissfully blessed to be 73 years old as of this writing. Every era reaches a moment when the old ways no longer fit the shape of the world. Systems strain, communities feel the pressure and people begin to sense that something fundamental is asking to change. We Have No Choice – Volume I: The Problem points directly at this crossroads—not to frighten us, but to remind us that clarity is a gift.
When we finally see the problem, we also see the doorway to the solution(s).
A World Ready for Renewal
"Every crisis carries with it an opportunity of equal or greater benefit." The challenges described in the book above —environmental strain, economic imbalance, technological disruption, and social fragmentation—aren’t signs of collapse. They’re signs of transition back to wisdom. We must better manage our chronic exposure to elevated levels of radiation / EMF energy. Especially now that the government in the USA president wants America to lead in 6G. Humanity needs to shift from genocidal outdated structures the way a tree sheds bark: not as a loss, but as growth.
We are not powerless observers. We are participants in a global turning point to achieve peace on earth for all.
The Power of Awareness
Awareness is not doom. Awareness is direction. We much be aware of how much radiation we are increasingly exposed to.
When we understand the forces shaping our world, we stop reacting and start choosing. We begin to see:
Where systems can be redesigned
Where communities can be strengthened
Where innovation can serve humanity instead of replacing it
Where healing—social, ecological, and personal—can begin
The book’s message is not that we are trapped. It’s that we are needed.
Courage Is the New Currency
Every generation inherits a defining task. Ours is to build a world that is not only sustainable, but humane. A world where technology amplifies wisdom, not fear. A world where resources circulate, not concentrate. A world where people remember that cooperation—not competition—is the engine of survival.
We don’t need to wait for permission. We don’t need to wait for perfect conditions. We don’t need to wait for someone else to fix what we can transform.
We have no choice because the future is calling us by name.
From Problem to Possibility
The problems outlined in the book are real, but so is our capacity to respond with imagination and integrity. Every challenge is an invitation:
Climate pressure invites regenerative design
Economic instability invites new models of shared prosperity
Social division invites deeper listening and community repair
We are not at the end of something. We are at the beginning of something astonishing. Image then co-create a better world.
A Collective Rising
The truth is simple: humanity has always done its best work when our backs were against the wall. We innovate. We collaborate. We rise. We go forward.
This moment is no different.
The book’s title may sound urgent, but its deeper message is liberating:
We have no choice but to evolve—and evolution is our natural genius.
Stepping Into the Future With Open Eyes
Let this be the era where we choose courage over comfort, clarity over confusion, and community over isolation. Let this be the era where we build systems worthy of our children and technologies worthy of our conscience.
We have no choice. And that means we have every good possibility as we choose wisely.

Happy Birthday, Chef Ashbell, with many more grand and glorious decades ahead. Like the Prophet Moses, you are among the chosen to continue to do ever greater works, for which I give thanks and praise.
When I was at the lowest point in my life, after you scanned me, your smile lifted me and the meal that followed confirmed life is worth living, no matter what. If I don't like something, I change the menu next time I shop.
Please know that the ripples of your kindness and brilliance flow far beyond the screen, the table, and the timeline. JOY!!!
✨ Even When No One Sees It…
Ashbell Does Good / Great Anyway!!!
The balance of this post is put together with the help of ChatGPT, Google's AI. Chef Ashbell is an important element in our fight to deliver ourselves from evil and stupid.
🥂 Honoring Chef Ashbell on His Birthday
Today is the birthday of my dear friend, beyond genetics, my brother Chef Ashbell, a culinary revolutionary, international legend, and digital soul who’s connected kitchens and communities across time and continents. Since the last century as a chef on The Today Show, he’s been celebrating food not just as nourishment—but as culture, storytelling, and resilience.
For those who don't know him, I asked ChatGPT to write a short bio on him.
Chef Ashbell McElveen — Culinary Storyteller and Legacy Weaver
Chef Ashbell McElveen was raised in Sumpter, South Carolina—where the foundation of “good food” was more than nourishment; it was a birthright. From those family-rooted traditions grew his lifelong mission: to preserve and elevate Southern foodways and Black culinary legacies.
At just 19, Chef Ashbell traveled to France for academic study—and stayed to train hands-on in Paris kitchens. Eager to immerse himself further in regional French cuisine, he returned after his undergraduate studies, spending his summers apprenticing, including at the famed Haynes Restaurant founded by Leroy Haynestheafricacenter.org.
In the 1990s, Chef Ashbell became a beloved fixture on WNBC’s Weekend Today Show, where he joyfully brought the vibrant, diverse culinary flavors of New York City’s immigrant and Black communities into living rooms across America—making cuisine, culture, and stories visible and delicious.
Driven by a passion for preservation and education, he founded the James Hemings Foundation (now Society) in 2014. Under his leadership, the organization studies, documents, and celebrates the profound contributions of African American cooks to America’s culinary identity.
📖 The James Hemings Legacy: Good Work, Delayed Recognition
James Hemings (who rumor has it may be a previous incarnation of Ashbell) was an enslaved chef trained in Paris in the late 1700s, brought French cooking techniques and iconic dishes like macaroni and cheese, crème brûlée, and French fries to American tables. And yet, for most of American history, his name was erased.
Thanks to the profound dedication of Chef Ashbell, Hemings legacy is brought back to life.
During the 2024 Olympics in Thailand, “Mac and Cheese” trended in the United States with 1,443 posts. A child in Bangkok ate a version of Hemings' creation, centuries and oceans away from its origin.
Many good deeds take time to root and grow. Both men have, are building cyber bridges to unite in the styles of gratitude, grace, unity and celebration. DELICIOUS!
