Bamboo: A Possible Approach To The Control Of Global Warming

Bamboo is the fastest-growing plant oil Earth, and it has all excellent capability of fixing carbon, it was clocked surging skyward as fast grow as 44cm in a 24-hour period and its carbon accumulation reaches as high as about 1.83kg in a 28-day period of its early ontogeny in Lin-an City. That means a bamboo in its early ontogeny can absorb about 3.73 cubic meter of carbon dioxide, equivalent to absorbing about 2 cars' CO(2) emissions in a day. It is Concluded that bamboo is all efficient candidate to control global warming. The observation is made in Lin-an City, Zhejiang province, China from April 13 to May 10, 2005.
