World Bamboo Day is celebrated annually on 18 September to raise awareness about the importance of bamboo and promote its sustainable use. The day was officially declared during the 8th World Bamboo Congress in Bangkok, Thailand, in 2009. Bamboo is recognized for its environmental benefits, including its role in combating climate change, providing sustainable livelihoods, and offering a renewable alternative to wood, plastic, and other materials.
Bamboo is versatile, fast-growing, and has a wide range of applications, from construction to textiles and even food. World Bamboo Day encourages the preservation and cultivation of bamboo as part of a global movement toward more eco-friendly and sustainable practices.
