The bamboo subfamily (Poaceae) comprises over 50 genera and 1000 species. Bamboos are typically fast-growing perennials distributed in tropical and sub-tropical regions. They are heavily concentrated in East and Southeast Asia, but you can still find Bamboos growing almost anywhere in the world, including the Himalayas. It is the fastest growing plant on Earth, holding a record of growing 120cm in 24 hours and its largest species can reach a height of 40 meters.

Still, processing bamboo fibre to textile is not necessarily so nature friendly.<\/p>\n<p>There are two methods of extracting fabric from the bamboo plant. The mechanical method starts with crushing the plants into a mush, using natural enzymes to break it down and then combining out the fibres and spinning them into a yarn. The produced fabric resembles linen and is often called bamboo linen.<\/p>\n<p>The bamboo fabric you can often find is unfortunately bamboo rayon \u2013 a fabric produced by using the chemical method which involves a cocktail of chemical solvents and bleaches. Sodium hydroxide and carbon disulphide are most commonly used and are harmful to both the nature and the workers exposed to them. So, keep that in mind.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"color: #748136;\"><strong>Food<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Bamboo shoots are a delicious, healthy and nutritious food not only for the pandas but for us too.

Bamboo grows fast (about 4 years from planting to initial harvest) in diverse climate conditions and spreads on its own due its massive root system. Bamboo forests are usually very dense as the plant\u2019s root system grows deep rather than wide. And if you think that the lack of a big crown means less oxygen release, you are wrong \u2013 bamboo would release about 30% more oxygen into the atmosphere compared to any other plant on Earth, even the Amazon rain forests! This is actually a much discussed option to fight the greenhouse effect.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row type=&#8221;full_width_content&#8221; full_screen_row_position=&#8221;middle&#8221; column_margin=&#8221;default&#8221; column_direction=&#8221;default&#8221; column_direction_tablet=&#8221;default&#8221; column_direction_phone=&#8221;default&#8221; scene_position=&#8221;center&#8221; text_color=&#8221;dark&#8221; text_align=&#8221;left&#8221; row_border_radius=&#8221;none&#8221; row_border_radius_applies=&#8221;bg&#8221; overflow=&#8221;visible&#8221; advanced_gradient_angle=&#8221;0&#8243; overlay_strength=&#8221;0.3&#8243; gradient_direction=&#8221;left_to_right&#8221; shape_divider_position=&#8221;bottom&#8221; bg_image_animation=&#8221;none&#8221; gradient_type=&#8221;default&#8221; shape_type=&#8221;&#8221;][vc_column column_padding=&#8221;padding-5-percent&#8221; column_padding_tablet=&#8221;inherit&#8221; column_padding_phone=&#8221;inherit&#8221; column_padding_position=&#8221;left-right&#8221; column_element_spacing=&#8221;default&#8221; background_color_opacity=&#8221;1&#8243; background_hover_color_opacity=&#8221;1&#8243; column_shadow=&#8221;none&#8221; column_border_radius=&#8221;none&#8221; column_link_target=&#8221;_self&#8221;&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":2193,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[75],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2319","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-useful"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.4 -
