Actually to cut/remove bamboo you have to obtain permission from the relevant Ministry.

It's illegal and ignorant to cut bamboo from riverbanks especially.

[nervewrecker]

bursting bamboo is a nuisance.
fireworks should be banned unless its controlled, including bamboo bursting.
these donkeys going and killing bamboo trees to burst bamboo. isnt this traditional?

Fixed.............killing bamboo trees to burst bamboo makes people donkeys?

Because research shows that deforestation leads to flooding. And then all these donkeys will come on tv asking for govt assistance cuz they house flood out after they cut down all d bamboo and dispose of it improperly.

Tradition my foot..more like 3rd world mentality.

Cutting a bamboo to burst for Divali is considered deforestation? I guess when people cut to prop their deckings when building houses is a global disaster...

yes it is deforestation. You removing vegetative cover & less bamboo it have is less leaves to fall & provide a protective cover for the underlying soil (google mulching). This protective cover decreases the velocity of the surface flow & therefore its erosive capabilities while protecting it from the full impact of rain drops that loosen top soil that makes it easier to erode.
After a flood watch how much sand / soil you see settle when the water resides. where you think it come from? it fall with the rain?
On top that, eroded top soil that finds itself in water ways decreases the hydraulic diameter of these channels & its ability to transport water.

Why dont the contractor use some ole pipe to prop decking & charge a small rental fee
for use of the pipes. That way they make some extra $$$ & the trees get left alone.

[shake d livin wake d dead]

^^^ that I'm sure never happens,because you does see men cutting bamboo for prayers,for building houses,bursting,etc etc,without any permission.

finally...fyahz being geeed!

If you hire a contractor and he uses bamboo for whatever purposes, he should be fired.

[nervewrecker]

If you hire a contractor with plenty fyahz and he uses bamboo for whatever purposes, he should be fyahed.

I caught up in the fyahz nuh.

but anyhow, a person whom building a house will prefer cut the cost of having to pay rent for something that can be used instead of bamboo. Its easier to give a few pipers $$$ for 2 5 ball & send them in the bamboo patch.

And yes bamboos only grows on river banks rite?

[~Vēġó~]

[TriP]

this is one of the best divali yet - no disgusting fireworks, my dogs are not scared to death.

On divali night you does see so much dead animals on the road - being knockdown by cars..

I really wish they ban fireworks altogether.

oye, nuttin wrong with cutting a bamboo or 2 & having a lil fun. but them nowdays kants does face it at people cars, house & make noise whole facking night. About the pets, yes I do feel sorry for them & I believe people should secure their pets properly. but at the same time, is not every night whole night yuh hadda be bussin that sh!t.
what I have a problem with is people cutting down half a damn patch to get a whole set to build house, there are alternative available.
for divali is slightly different, its not custom or tradition or something? (no im not a hindu)

did you know a permit is required?
I will think the people issuing the permit will have the power to deny issuing an individual with one. you cant come in with a request to cut down 4 bamboo patch & expect to get a permit.

so it havin fireworks in de nagar...isn't that illegal?

[brams112]

making some noise with some three plumes sulphur and a piece of soft metal is a good pow

Cutting bamboo for decking props wouldn't kill a bamboo patch. Far more for cutting a piece to burst bamboo. the problem in trinidad is that everybody has an opinion on something.

No problem, I prefer to see kids bussin bamboo than on the block smoking a joint and then going home to play video games....if this will keep us in a third world mind then so be it.................it's a sad day to see people like you put this as part of what causes us not to move forward......really sad.....

[shake d livin wake d dead]

can someone please justify how does keeping up with local traditions hamper us from moving from a "3rd world" status to 1st???

[rfari]

Why people so quick to say 3rd world this and that? Certain activities are part of our tradition like bursting bamboo. Just discretion is needed. That's all.

umm nerve do you knwo that bamboo is not a tree but a part of the grass family .. and do you know that it can grow as much as 3-4 inches a day .. deforestation will be more impacted on a teak tree or mahogony tree that will take 10-15yrs to grow rather than somn that will grow to maturity in a few months
