Bamboo rots and emits methane.

Yeah, you'd have to bury it deep enough to prevent decomposition within a few hundred years. Holes that big are hard to do without heavy machinery which guzzle fossil fuels.
I wonder if you can sink the bamboo in the sea?
It's easy enough to secure big rocks to bamboo, but the same problem arises, how do you get tons and tons of bamboo and any required ballast out to deep water positions? Cargo ships! Which are some of the worst polluters on earth.
