Bamboo clothing
Description
It's strong, grows up to a metre a day, needs little water and can sequester more carbon than trees. It's hailed as a green source of fabric, but what happens when you take something strong durable and hard like bamboo and turn it into something soft that you can wear against your skin? Tanya Ha looks into the green credentials of fashionable bamboo.
