You may think Bio-Char is complicated. However, it is really simple to make. Bio-Char is made when organic matter is heated at a high temperature. Watch this video to make your own Bio-Char oven.



Knowing how to make it is good, but why would I need to? It is a good stimulate for plant growth with 1 gram having 9,000 square feet of surface area. Leaving plenty of room for micro-organisms to grow. It helps with resistance to flooding and is the only effective and economical way to extract CO2 out of the air. Though composting and Bio-Char have similar benefits Bio-Char takes out 50% of carbon, while regular composting takes only 10-20%. It also holds nutrients and water similar to how a refrigerator preserves our food so we can come back to it at a later date.


Below is a picture of the difference Bio-Char can make on plant growth and prosperity.





It is easy to tell that Bio-Char is not new. It was found from an old civilization in the Amazon. LiDar imaging revealed the remnants of an ancient civilization that was once thought to be a made up story by a Spanish explorer.








This is what Bio-Char looks like...


This is Bio-Char under a microscope.
