Interesting Facts About Bamboo
Bamboo is a sustainable and renewable resource which makes it a surprisingly effective carbon sink and an important nature-based approach to mitigating global warming. Bamboo agroforestry plays a big role in rural and socioeconomic development and is recognized at the 13th session of the multi-year expert meeting on commodities and development in Geneva, Switzerland as an important commodity.
Bamboo has many uses, mainly in construction (flooring, roofing designing, and scaffolding), furniture, food, biofuel, fabrics, cloth, paper, pulp, charcoal, ornamental garden planting, and environmental characteristics, such as a large carbon sink and good phytoremediation option, improving soil structure and soil erosion.
