Biochar
Transforming waste into resource
Biochar is created by heating agricultural waste through pyrolysis, turning it into a stable form of carbon. This process locks away carbon for centuries while boosting soil health and farm yields, making it a smart, two-fold solution for both climate action and sustainable agriculture.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is biochar and how does it help in carbon compensation?
Biochar is made by heating organic material without oxygen, a process called pyrolysis, which turns biomass into a stable form of carbon. Once added to soil, it helps store carbon long-term and prevents it from being released into the atmosphere, contributing to effective carbon offsetting.
