Lets give it a name
I say Global Carbon March
Inter our exhaust

I don’t see any mention on your web site of Pyrolysis or Agrichar . Do you have projects in the planning stage on the carbon sequestration front?

The more you learn about this ancient technique of soil restoration the more you’ll see how elegant this solution can be for carbon sequestration, for us all.
Imagine putting the carbon tax funds into the hands of millions of peasant farmers all around the world, building their soil and their net worth at the same time they sequester our carbon. Please search “AGRICHAR” “BIOCHAR” or
“TERRA PRETA”

The information made available on this blog by Willem Romanus, on desertification and other related areas is amazing. I express my sincere appreciation for his efforts which would benefit many people around the world.
