À propos de cet audio

The provided podcast script, "Bamboozled! – India’s Bamboo Boom," discusses India's burgeoning bamboo industry. It highlights how India possesses the world's second-largest bamboo reserves yet lags behind China in exporting finished bamboo products. The script explains that bamboo is evolving from traditional village use to a modern "eco-chic" material for various items, from furniture to eco-friendly straws. Furthermore, it points out the significant government deregulation in 2017 that removed bamboo from the "tree" category, facilitating its cultivation and harvest. The podcast concludes by emphasising India's substantial potential to increase bamboo exports through investment in processing and design, envisioning bamboo as "green gold" with applications extending even to biomass energy.
