Bamboo houses in Colombia Global Ideas
Bamboo is a renewable building material. Capable of growing as much as 35 meters a year, it lends itself well to reforestation. Moreover, it absorbs four times more carbon dioxide and produces 30-40 percent more oxygen than comparable trees. The German-Colombian organization School for Life is making the most of bamboo’s potential, combining environmental action and social work to build schools, homes and community centers.
