BAMBOO as one plant can help. It won't save the world (yet) but it is a good start and can surely offset the ecological imbalance that exists today.

4 Bamboo Absorbs Carbon Dioxide र स क र बन ड इऑक स इड अवश ष त कर ल त ह और व त वरण म 30% और अष क ऑक स जन Bamboo absorbs carbon dioxide and releases over 30% more oxygen into the atmosphere compared to an equivalent mass of trees. This makes bamboo excellent for absorbing greenhouse gases and producing clean & fresh oxygen. We can all use a lot more of that!!

5 Amazingly fast that is Some species of bamboo are clocked at growing over 3' (90cm) in height in a day! That's over 1.5" (3.8cm) in one hour. No other plant on earth can do this!! ब स त ज स बढ त ह Bamboo Grows Faster than TREES Bamboo can reach full maturity in 1 to 5 years (dependent on species). Hardwood trees can take 30 to 40 years. It is the only woody plant that can keep up with the rate of human consumption and deforestation.

6 Bamboo Is A Renewable Resource When bamboo is harvested, it will continue to grow new shoots from its amazing root system. There is NO ADDITIONAL PLANTING OR CULTIVATION. Bamboo requires NO CHEMICALS, PESTICIDES OR FERTILIZER TO GROW and thrive. It's very own FALLEN LEAVES PROVIDE THE NECESSARY NUTRIENTS that get recycled back into the soil. Every part of the plant can be FULLY UTILIZED in one way or another with ZERO WASTE. After the bamboo material has reached it's life span, it can be RECYCLED BACK into our good earth.

7 Bamboo Prevents Soil Erosion After a hardwood forest is cleared, the soil below is exposed to the elements and eventually erodes away into the rivers and streams Harming Wildlife & the Natural Balance. Whereas the root system of bamboo continues to grow after harvesting. New shoots will emerge and the roots still prevent soil erosion and maintaining nutrients.

8 Bamboo s Versatility In Growing Conditions Bamboo is Highly Versatile and can grow in all sorts of climate zones and soil types where other crops fail. ब स सभ जलव य क ष त म बढ त ह
