I think that it is so cool that now we can make fabric out of bamboo. I have a few shirts that are bamboo and they are so much more comfy then regular T-Shirts!

Wow! I love earth friendly fabrics! Who knew that bamboo has the proper fiber to make actual comfortable clothes! I want to buy one today. This is an idea that I would never have expected to be true. But I'm sure that they would be extremely expensive, but so what; the would be worth every penny. I also think that it would be fun to make a shirt out of bamboo because you would get to see the actual fibers of bamboo and to be able to use them to make them into the shirt! I may want to try this (using my creativity) to grow a bamboo tree since they grow somewhat fast and I could try to like stick together bamboo fibers into a shape of a shirt and put my own design on it. Yes I could try to do that. But there is only just one little problem. IF WE USE ALL OF THESE BAMBOO TREES, EVENTUALLY WE WILL RUN OUT OF BAMBOO TREES IN THE WORLD! This is also exactly like cutting down trees for a good use (either way, whichever kind of shirt fabric we use, we eventually will run out of all fabrics.
