By converting agricultural biomass into biochar, farmers can enhance soil fertility, improve water retention, and sequester carbon dioxide, thus contributing to sustainable land management practices and mitigating climate change impacts. Forestry Industry Similarly, the forestry industry can benefit from biomass pyrolysis by converting ...
This proprietary process takes the carbon removal potential of biochar and connects it to the scale of manufactured goods with a production volume relevant for the climate crisis. Regional forestry industries provide us with our raw material, in the form of residual sawdust or wood chips, from which we produce the biochar. ...
“Natural Climate Solutions” (NCS) help nature do what it’s been doing for millions of years: sequester and store carbon. New research shows that these solutions could deliver 37% of the emissions reductions needed to limit global warming to 2°C. However, despite their massive potential, they only make up 1% of the climate conversation. We’re changing that by ...
The FutMon partner organisation in the UK is Forest Research (Centre for Forestry and Climate Change). The data required for FutMon are being collected at existing UK long term forest monitoring plots, established by Forest Research in 1994. ...
These include (1) new annual binding GHG emission targets for Member States for the 2021 to 2030 period (a new ‘effort sharing’ between Member States, including new flexibilities to achieve these targets); (2) the integration of the land use, land-use change and forestry (LULUCF) sector into the EU 2030 Climate and Energy Framework; and (3) a European ...
Farmers are also getting involved, most recently through the Climate Leaders program of the National Farmers Union. Now the challenge is to translate all this momentum to action, starting with how we approach and develop climate-smart projects. In April 2015, USDA released the Building Blocks of Climate Smart Agriculture and ...
The GCF intends to support clean energy, low-carbon cities, low-emission agriculture, forestry and climate adaptation. Tunisian economist Héla Cheikhrouhou, the fund’s first executive director, has said that its goal is nothing less than to help poor countries overcome “the twin threats of climate change and ...

In-depth climate and climate impact consulting services based on the data and the underlying climate impact research are to be provided. The climate change adaptation issue Climate data has the potential to be a valuable resource for a number of economically relevant sectors such as agriculture, ...
This paper reviews the scope for the rural land use sector to support emissions reduction with particular reference to the role of forestry. A bottom–up approach is adopted to explore the relative contribution of different land–based activities in the region and explore the Scottish policy context and the scope for emissions reduction through new tree planting. ...
A new discrepancy turned up today at the centre of the UN’s long-running climate change negotiations in the latest round of talks in Tianjin, when one of China's top negotiators reiterated his call for industrialised nations to adopt more ambitious carbon reduction targets. While officials hoped that latest round of talks would focus on the areas where agreement is likely ...
