Biochar is revolutionising the way we look at waste 🌾 It has huge potential to help tackle climate issues, while providing a circular solution to our waste problem. For example, businesses like Hempalta are recycling industrial hemp biomass processed at its production facility to produce Biochar. Circular biochar created from agricultural waste, and used as a valuable soil amendment that increases the water and nutrients sandy soil can hold, while locking carbon out of the atmosphere. At A Healthier Earth, we are applying circular biochar in a range of different ways, to help with geo-specific solutions like, reforesting, de-desertification, and low carbon agriculture 🌳 Find out more about our circular biochar here ⬇ https://lnkd.in/er7SkaH2

Living Carbon is fast-tracking trees for the planet’s future. 🌲 The company’s enhanced photosynthesis trait allows trees to grow faster and accumulate about 53% more biomass, leading to greater carbon sequestration and longer-lasting wood products. We’re thrilled to support Maddie Hall, Patrick Mellor, and the entire team at Living Carbon for many reasons. 👩🔬 Product Innovation: Prioritizing product innovation over practice changes (e.g., no-till farming) simplifies the adoption of nature-based solutions for farmers. 🌱 Land Restoration: In the US, 1.6 million acres of degraded land can benefit from Living Carbon's trees, which proliferate, tolerate heavy metals, and help restore ecosystems. 📈 VCM: Living Carbon supports a robust Voluntary Carbon Market (VCM) by generating diverse income streams (e.g., timber) and benchmarking its trees against others to ensure high-quality credits. 🌳 Scalability: Tree enhancement is scalable due to existing planting infrastructure. Living Carbon focuses on the Poplar tree, leveraging its well-known genetics to optimize carbon removal processes. Take a tour through the Living Carbon greenhouse below!

📄 #DYK that around 400 million tons of paper are produced worldwide each year? 🌳 Around half of this comes from wood pulp which can lead to deforestation, harming biodiversity, releasing carbon dioxide into the atmosphere and disrupting ecosystems. The #EUFunded Grasspaper project found a way to make paper production more sustainable by using grass fibres. The fibres can be sourced from a variety of fast-growing, renewable grass species, which do not require extensive land use. Grasspaper products could not only help reduce the impact on trees but also act as a replacement for single-use plastics 🥤 🎥 Watch our video to learn more about the Grasspaper project and #MakeTheConnection with #EUScience

"Corn" comes in various varieties: (a) the corn we love to grill over the BBQ, (b) the corn popped, and (c) the corn grown to feed animals (field/dent corn). Each of these varieties possess distinct attributes and characteristics. A little-known fact is that in the past 20 years, the global corn production has doubled from ~600 million metric tons (mT) to ~1.2 billion mT (with the majority of it being dent corn), contributing to improved food security, increased energy independence, and a reduction in CO2 emissions. Interestingly, in the USA over that same period, the acreage (land-use) allocated to corn fields has remained largely unchanged, while experiencing a yield growth of over 40%. With all the talk on inflation and rising costs, the price of corn is currently at multi-year lows and the surplus (barring any weather event) is looking to grow in the years to come. The price of food at your local grocery store is much more correlated to the oil price and international conflicts than what the farmer is paid for his/her crop.

🌱🏆 Miss Biochar: The Story of Environmental Certificates for the Planet 🌍 Once upon a time, there was a remarkable initiative called Miss Biochar. She became the symbol of hope and sustainability, advocating for a greener future. But what exactly are these "married certificates" for the planet that she championed? Married certificates, known as environmental certificates, are a powerful tool in the fight against climate change. They represent an agreement between individuals, organizations, and governments to support eco-friendly practices and offset carbon emissions. These certificates provide tangible proof of commitment to sustainable development and help protect our precious planet. With Miss Biochar leading the charge, the world witnessed an incredible surge in initiatives that utilized biochar, a form of charcoal derived from organic waste. Biochar not only sequesters carbon dioxide from the atmosphere but also enhances soil fertility, reducing the need for harmful chemicals in agriculture. Through the combined efforts of Miss Biochar and countless eco-warriors, the married certificates for the planet gained widespread recognition. Individuals and businesses alike began adopting sustainable practices, investing in renewable energy, and funding environmental projects to earn these coveted certificates. Take your biochar production project to another level with International Biochar Initiative certification s and EBC. But the story doesn't end there. Miss Biochar continues to inspire us all, reminding us that the fight for a healthier planet requires ongoing dedication. As individuals, we can make a difference by supporting sustainable businesses, reducing our carbon footprint, and encouraging others to take action. ------------------------ So let's join forces with Miss Biochar and embrace the power of married certificates for the planet. Together, we can create a greener, more sustainable future for generations to come. 🌿💚 #MissBiochar #EnvironmentalCertificates #SustainabilityMatters Helping biochar production startups. Iet talk your biochar difficulties.
