Did you know that bamboo trees are more beneficial to the atmosphere in terms of oxygen production, than regular trees? They produce 35% more oxygen than them and “eat” a lot more CO2 than trees. For example, 1 hectar of bamboo consumes 62 tons of CO2/year, while 1 hectar of young forest consumes only 15 tons of CO2/year! See it for yourself in the chart below:
