Biochar Carbon Credits
Biochar is a charcoal-like material produced by heating agricultural or forestry residues without oxygen (pyrolysis). The process locks carbon that plants captured from the atmosphere into a highly stable form, which is then applied to soils or used in construction materials.
Biochar credits are popular with buyers who want durable, measurable carbon removal at mid-range prices, with strong co-benefits: biochar improves soil fertility, water retention, and crop yields where it is applied.
