Biochar—charcoal created through controlled burning of organic waste—is bridging ancient Amazonian farming wisdom with modern climate science. This soil amendment sequesters carbon for centuries while improving fertility, water retention, and crop yields, offering a scalable climate solution backed by millennia of proven results.
Biochar, an ancient soil amendment used by Amazonian civilizations, is emerging as a powerful climate solution that sequesters carbon for centuries while improving soil health and crop productivity.
Carbon capture technology is rapidly evolving from expensive experiment to viable infrastructure, with costs dropping 80% and major projects coming online worldwide. However, success depends on treating it as a complement to emissions reduction, not a replacement for urgent decarbonization.
