[DK GreenRoots] Biochar: A Game Changer for the Climate?
A USDA research team investigating the ancient soil amendment biochar to address current and future food security is suggesting that, with its potential to store one gigaton of carbon per year by 2050, biochar could be a"game changer" in addressing global warming.
In field and lab tests using hundreds of varieties of biochar, scientists at South Dakota State University and the University of Minnesota, St. Paul, are studying soil fertility, the stability of biochars in different types of soil, and the levels of carbon different biochars sequester.
