Abstract : Bamboo is considered as a low cost raw material which is available in abundance in our country. Bamboo is a renewable source: fastest growing plant as mentioned in the Guinness Book of records which keep on regenerating by itself for more than 75 years even after harvesting. It helps in carbon sequestration by absorbing 5 times more CO2 and oxygenating the environment by producing 35% more oxygen in comparison to other plants. Hence Bamboo based industries will be a best substitute for plastic and timber based industries and thus solve the problem of all sorts of pollution i.e. land , air, water as well as deforestation of the forest zones. Commercial Plantation of the recommended bamboo species and better promotion strategies of the bamboo based products will surely lead to the development of various micro, small and medium industries. These labour based industries will create employment opportunities for the major section of the society who are not well educated and are living below the poverty line. Based on the preliminary results of primary data collection it has been concluded that most of the bamboo based artisans are striving to fulfill their basic livelihood requirements even though bamboo is considered as the best raw materials for producing multiple products. India is the second largest producer of bamboo yet bamboo based sector is underdeveloped in our country. The research work is based on the literature review and initial primary data collection from respondents who belongs to Gujarat state. Descriptive research design and convenience sampling method has been used. The objectives of the research work is 1) To study the implementation of sustainable development goals with respect to the role of bamboo plantation and 2) To study social, economic and environmental implications by the promotion of bamboo based industries. Keywords - Bamboo, sustainable development goals, eco-friendly, Environment, sustainability
