SDGs Action Workshop
Effective use of bamboo (cutting bamboo, making bamboo charcoal, making compost)

If you take a look at the scenery when you ride the train or go out to the suburbs, it is not uncommon to see bamboo forests. Nowadays, many forests are being replaced by bamboo forests. Bamboo is also an important plant, but too much of it is not good. The main reasons for this are the loss of biodiversity and the tendency for landslides to occur. P&N is working to cut down these bamboos and return them to their original forests and fields. On January 15, we will hold an SDGs Action Workshop where we will cut down bamboo to make bamboo charcoal and compost using bamboo powder. We hope that you will get away from your daily life and enjoy the scenery of the countryside while experiencing the SDGs initiatives through bamboo cutting and bamboo charcoal making. We look forward to your participation.
