Explore the groundbreaking research on biochar's potential for carbon dioxide removal in this informative webinar. Delve into a newly published paper quantifying biochar production's global carbon removal capacity at ~6% annually, equivalent to India's yearly emissions or eliminating 803 coal power plants. Examine the framework for assessing biochar's contribution to national carbon emissions reduction goals across 155 countries, focusing on sustainably sourced biomass from existing agricultural, livestock, forestry, and wastewater treatment operations. Join lead author Dr. David Lefebvre, co-author Dr. Thomas Trabold, and International Biochar Initiative Executive Director Wendy Lu Maxwell-Barton as they discuss biochar as a circular climate change solution. Gain insights into why biochar should be integrated into every country's climate change policy and action plan, moderated by Wil Burns, Co-Director of the Institute for Carbon Removal Law and Policy.
