Biochar: Ancient Soil Fix Now Leading Climate Revolution

Biochar—charcoal produced from organic waste—is experiencing a renaissance as a dual-purpose climate solution that sequesters carbon for centuries while dramatically improving soil fertility and crop yields. Ancient Amazonian terra preta soils prove its long-term stability, and modern science has quantified the benefits: biochar now represents 86% of all delivered carbon removals globally, with market value jumping from $15M to $180M in two years. From low-tech backyard production to industri...

Biochar Carbon Sequestration: Ancient Climate Solution

Biochar—charcoal created by heating biomass without oxygen—has been used for over 2,000 years to enrich Amazonian soil and is now emerging as a powerful climate solution. It locks carbon in soil for centuries, boosts crop yields by 10-50%, reduces irrigation needs by 25%, and generated 87-92% of all carbon removals in 2022-2023. With 300+ firms now producing biochar and major corporations buying carbon credits, this ancient practice is becoming a cornerstone of modern climate strategy—but sca...
