Bamboo is Fastest Growing Plant in the World. 1 Acre Bamboo Plantation can Offset 100 Tons of CO2. Which means if 1% of Agriculture land is Dedicated to Bamboo Farming then Every Year 35 Billion Tons of CO2 will be offset. World Emits approx 35 Billion Tons of CO2 Every Year. So Every Year We will Produce zero Carbon Emissions. In this Way we can stop Further Heating of Planet.

are there any downsites to using bamboo?

Nope. It is Antibacterial. Fastest growing plant in world. Single bamboo can achieve 200 kg weight in 4th year. There are 1500 applications of bamboo. You can make 1 kg CNG from 6kg of Bamboo. Cloth made from bamboo is 2 times softer than cotton amd 3 degrees cooler than cotton. Bamboo make our life carbon negative... Planting a acre of bamboo can make you life carbon neutral... As bamboo produces approx 60 to 80 tons of biomass which is locked up in bamboo and in soil. We supply best quality plants of bamboo for plantation in India. We are promoting bamboo plantation on large scale in order to fight climate change and capture CO2.

Then I will follow you, my friend. I am very interested in the topic and eager to find all the uses for the plant. BUt I haven't found much downsides to bamboo so far. Monocultures? Viscosis processing? Even if these might have an impact on the ecological footprint it seems to be much smaller than with most other plants and woods.

You can take nitrogen fixing crops as intercrops in bamboo for first 3 years... First 3 years there wont be much revenue. From 4 th year revenue will start from bamboo. Somebody frm western country has started replacing bamboo as building material. Instead of bricks, cement , sand what he has done is he made a compact structure of bamboo which interlocks . So u can make a wall, ceiling or any structure. World is running out of sand and many other resources. Bamboo is future in contruction of homes.

From our sites in India.

And in the second picture, waht exactly is being done there? Isn't that kind of machine used to destroy the roots of the bamboo? What for?

What happens bamboo plants sheds lot of leaves and around more than 5 tons of biomass falls on ground in 1 acre. So in summers there is chance of catching fire. That equipment attached to tractor is not a deep cultivator. It only mixes top soil with biomass so that the the dry biomass does nt catch fire.

thank you for making that clear!

thats awesome, do you know the name of that building material?

There many varieties in bamboo. What we are using in India for commercial production is balcoa bambusa bamboo which has good commercial acceptance..

That is why it is good to power your home with renewable energy.
Choose a utility company that generates at least half its power from wind or solar and has been certified by Green-e Energy, an organization that vets renewable energy options

Bamboo can be used for Power Generation in place of coal. Bamboo has only 1% Ash. Coal has Much higher ash content and disposing ash is big problem for coal fired power plants. Bamboo is renewable. It grows for 100 years. Every year you get new Shoots so Without completely deforesting bamboo you can get bamboo every year from your farm.
