Bamboo can be grown with little water and no fertilizers or pesticides, making it sustainable, natural and resource saving. When harvested, bamboo does not require replanting, it will grow a new shoots as a result of its extensive root system, which in turn protects soil from erosion, with this, bamboo can help prevent landslides. Bamboo sequesters carbon dioxide from the environment - twice as much as many other trees and plants - it also produces 35% more oxygen than trees of an equivalent size.
