Reversing Climate Change by City-Tech Blogger Henry Ovalle

Today, by just spreading the word here on ClimateYou, I am helping out Warm Heat, a nonprofit organization based in Thailand, with a project that they have initiated to help put an end to climate change by using a method called Biochar. Biochar is charcoal used as a soil amendment and is used as a means of removing carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. Biochar is a stable solid and rich in carbon, which helps the soil to stay in the same condition for many years.

Warm Heat is an organization that helps farmers to test the performance of new fertilizers and agricultural techniques. Their work can have a huge impact on reversing global warming by using biochar and by spreading the word about the benefits of switching to biochar.
