Mitä tarkoittaa

Bambu (Bambusoideae) on ruohojen alaryhmä, johon kuuluu yli 1 000 eri lajia. Bambu on tunnettu nopeasta kasvustaan; jotkut lajit voivat kasvaa jopa metrin vuorokaudessa. Bambu on tärkeä rakennusmateriaali monissa kulttuureissa, erityisesti Aasiassa, ja sitä käytetään myös elintarvikkeena, huonekaluissa, paperinvalmistuksessa ja monissa muissa sovelluksissa. Bambu on ekologisesti kestävä vaihtoehto monille perinteisille materiaaleille, sillä se sitoo hiilidioksidia tehokkaasti ja voi kasvaa ilman kemiallisia lannoitteita.
