Biochar

BIOCHAR 

Biochar is charcoal used as a soil amendment. Biochar is a stable solid, rich in carbon, and quickly gaining popularity for the fact that it reduces carbon emissions. It is available for all sizes of soil amendments, from home gardening to industrial mining reclamation.
It's time to make a change!
Like most charcoal, biochar is made from biomass via pyrolysis. Biochar is under investigation as an approach to carbon sequestration, as it has the potential to help mitigate climate change. It results from processes related to pyrogenic carbon capture and storage (PyCCS).

 Independently, biochar can increase soil fertility of acidic soils (low pH soils), increase agricultural productivity, and provide protection against some foliar and soil-borne diseases. Regarding the definition from the production part, biochar is defined by the International Biochar Initiative as "The solid material obtained from the thermochemical conversion of biomass in an oxygen-limited environment".

Extensive research has proven, that Biochar can sequesters 29 billion tons of carbon added to 10% of the worlds soils!
