THE BAMBOO BAE started with a simple idea: even small changes can make a big difference. We found a solution to the problem of plastic waste by discovering amazing bamboo products in the jungles of Northeast India. Now, let's talk about bamboo and how it helps the environment. Join us as we explore why bamboo products are considered eco-friendly and lets learn how it can make a positive impact on our planet.
