What an interesting post!! I always knew bamboo was renewable and a source for all kinds of things like food and textiles, but I had no idea for example, it was sturdy enough to use as scaffolding! And the photos of the bamboo forests are so stunning!

I found your post through @freedomshift's entry to the Pay it Forward Curation contest. Think about joining us next week; let me know if you'd like the link. Thanks again for a great post!
