Swing into sustainability with bamboo and join us in transforming Bengaluru into a greener, healthier, and more resilient city.
Bamboo4Bengaluru is a city-wide green movement born out of the vision to restore Bengaluru’s ecological balance through the power of bamboo. The initiative is led by The Green School Bangalore, in collaboration with the Department of Forest, Environment & Climate Change, Government of Karnataka, under the dynamic leadership of Hon’ble Forest Minister Shri Eshwar Khandre, and supported by the Bamboo Society of India, guided by its Chairman Shri Punati Sridhar IFS (Retd.).
We believe that Bengaluru, a city once known as the “Garden City of India,” must reclaim its identity by reconnecting with nature. Bamboo—fast-growing, climate-smart, and versatile—is not just a plant, but a solution to urban climate challenges. Through this initiative, we are mobilising communities, government institutions, corporates, schools, and civil society to make Bengaluru the Bamboo Capital of India.
Become a part of our Bamboo Champions program and help us nurture Bengaluru’s green future every month.

At Bamboo4Bengaluru, we combine expertise, community engagement, and hands-on action to create lasting environmental impact. Led by experienced environmentalists and supported by government and civic bodies, our initiatives are designed to restore Bengaluru’s green legacy. By involving schools, corporates, and local communities, we make sustainability a shared mission, ensuring that every bamboo planted contributes to a healthier, greener, and more resilient city.
Bamboo4Bengaluru is a city-wide green movement led by The Green School Bangalore, in collaboration with the Government of Karnataka and Bamboo Society of India, aimed at restoring Bengaluru’s ecological balance through bamboo plantation and awareness programs.
Bamboo is one of the fastest-growing, climate-smart plants. It absorbs more carbon dioxide, releases more oxygen, prevents soil erosion, and provides sustainable raw material for eco-friendly products—making it a perfect solution for urban climate challenges.
You can join plantation drives, volunteer in community events, support our awareness programs, or contribute to our monthly giving program to ensure consistent support for green initiatives.
We organise large-scale bamboo plantation drives in parks, schools, campuses, public spaces, lakesides, and even along highways. These plantations are not just symbolic; they are carefully planned to improve air quality, prevent soil erosion, and create carbon sinks.

Our initiative thrives on partnerships—with government bodies ensuring scale, corporates contributing through CSR, and citizens volunteering as bamboo ambassadors. By uniting these forces, we are creating a people’s movement that blends ecology with economy.
