The Other Black Gold—Biochar
Scientists believe that Biochar could be just thing to help reduce one of our major greenhouse gases, carbon.
What is Biochar? It is the black charcoal remnants of plant matter (ie.
forest debris and crop leftovers) heated
with minimal oxygen.
The process used to produce Biochar also collects the smoke and its by-products to
create bio-oil, a liquid that can be used for fuel.
Biochar is a soil amendment for crops or revegetation efforts
that increases soil fertility by sequestering atmospheric carbon.
The whole process is considered to be
carbon-negative which means biochar does not emit carbon and it extracts carbon from the atmosphere.
