The very eco friendly sustainable bamboo is creating quite a buzz in the eco friendly communities nowadays due to its efficiency in sustained living conditions and durability. Bamboos are viewed and developed by eco friendly companies to be the highest quality building material rather than the traditional construction products that brings more harm than good to the community. The plant is very versatile.
Bamboos are fast growing plants and require minimal care. It can endure the harshest conditions that make many trees perish such as poor soil, bad weather condition and limited water supply. You cut down bamboos and it will grow back in no time without any effort exerted by man. By its growth and maintenance, it prevents erosion and restores the soil by removing toxins, making it more fertile.
There are many uses for the bamboo plant. Centuries back, resourceful Chinese people builds fences by bamboos. Nipa huts, an indigenous house used in the Philippines, are made from bamboo as well. They believed that bamboo is resistant to termites and rot and will last for about 40 years. It is also a durable choice for house flooring needs. The sweet edible shoots are harvested for food and paper can be made from bamboo as well.
Compared to traditional hardwood that we use, bamboo generates faster and reproduces in large quantities providing more usable products for people to utilize. It produces more oxygen, absorbs more carbon dioxide and makes the soil more solid which yields great results in the environment
