Bamboo has exploded onto the eco scene — and for good reason. It is one of the fastest-growing plants on Earth, with some species shooting up nearly a metre a day.
It regenerates itself
Unlike trees, bamboo regrows from its root system after harvest, so no replanting is needed and soil stays intact.
It needs no chemicals
Naturally pest-resistant bamboo thrives without pesticides or irrigation, making it a dream for organic farming.
Where to start
Try a bamboo toothbrush or cutlery set — tiny changes that introduce a remarkable material into your daily routine.
