Bamboo is one of the oldest plants. Bamboo should be part of the "Portfolio" of approaches to the solution of "The Inconvenient Truth". It can grow in almost any soil. It can thrive on Waste Water. Bamboo is a sustainable material that can substitite for many common materials, from cotton, to steel and carbon fiber. It is the highest practical Carbon Sequestrating Biomass. It can be grown most effectivly near sources of CO2 emissions. It can be developed into the most efficient standardized "Carbon Credits". It is a high value crop. The Grass Genome has recently been sequenced. We can now "design" new types of Bamboo to suit our requirements. Please read more at: Bambooisgrass.com (This page was written by the author of this entry, and has a lot of information about the efficacy of Bamboo as a solution to many problems.) Please consider the potential for Bamboo to help save the air and water, and then become involved in the effort to promote the many uses for bamboo. We are forming a "Plantation Chapter" of the American Bamboo Society, a not for profit 501-c-3, tax exempt organization, eligible for Grant Funding. We need members from all diciplines and interests...As a member, you will be in on the beginning of "the next big thing"; and part of the solution for pollution. Great things await the "Bamboo Revolution", lets join it together. This posting was written by Robert Roark Robert Roark 22:16, 18 April 2007 (UTC), Bambooisgrass@gmail.com
