Industry colleague, foodie-extraordinaire, & all-around good guy Mark Casper passed along this interesting article on bamboo flooring. This well-written article in SLATE entitled Bamboo and You, Are hardwood floors a crime against the Earth? was authored by It echos a lot of what I've been saying for a while now. Bamboo is a great eco-friendly crop; a wonder crop perhaps. However, as with most things, the eco-friendly story is a mixed bag. Is it a great hardwood floor? Read the article and let me know your thoughts.
Coming in the next few days, I'll highlight some other eco-friendly hardwood options for consideration that are local, affordable, and stunning! Stay tuned!

Interesting points on bamboo. My belief is using reclaimed wood is better than any other material. If you ever need a reclaimed source on the east coast - www.solumreclaimed.com.
