AW: [bamboo-plantations] Scientists uncover key to boosting carbon capture(bamboo and sugar cane)

Gigantis Bamboo plantation Hi Michael,

In this matter I already sent several mails to the bamboo plantations group.
Out of respect for the other members of this e-mail-group I don't like to
repeat my arguments in this place, but if you e-mail me directly, I can send
you copies of those mails.

Furthermore you can read some comments concerning this matter, which I wrote
in the web forum of the European Bamboo Society – Germany:

http://bambusdeutschland.plusboard.de/viewtopic.php?t=5007
<http://bambusdeutschland.plusboard.de/viewtopic.php?t=5007&highlight>

I would be very glad if you made some critical notes in this web forum.

In every case I wish you much success for your bamboo project in Mozambique!

Regards,

Raimund

Hi, Rai,
what we have to do in this moment, is to save the atmosphere as a natural
element that enables life in this world.
I`m sure that there is as much coal, or carbon, in this world as ever has
been before. But this life, and that of our children, needs an atmosphere
with very much less of dioxide of carbone than in this moment. Maybe that
dinosaurs didn`t matter so much upon this matter. But human being does. So I
think, and you may have already seen that I`m not a geologist, a biologist
or somebody like that, that it is preferible to change the carbon of the
atmosphere into carbon catched in furniture, in floors, in green plants than
in our amosphere. And it is not so important for me that it gets back into
stone.
My lopinion.
HUgs,
Michael.
