Why buy biochar removals?
Biochar is a form of charcoal created by heating organic material, known as biomass, in an oxygen-free environment at temperatures of 400°C or higher. This process, called pyrolysis, produces energy-rich gases and liquids as well as a solid product—biochar. When applied to soils, biochar not only locks carbon underground for long periods (hundreds to thousands of years) but also enhances soil health, nutrient retention, and crop yields.
