Biochar

A charcoal-like material made from heating plant material (like wood, agricultural waste) in a low-oxygen environment, used to improve soil.

Soil carbon sequestration

The process of capturing and storing carbon dioxide from the atmosphere into soil, often by adding organic matter like biochar, to help reduce greenhouse gases.

Agronomic regions

Geographic areas characterized by similar agricultural conditions, such as climate, soil types, and typical crops grown.

Climate mitigation

Actions taken to reduce or prevent the emission of greenhouse gases, or to remove them from the atmosphere, to lessen the severity of climate change.

Feedstocks

Raw materials (like wood, crop residues, or other biomass) used to produce another product, in this case, biochar.

Thermochemical conversion

A process that uses heat and chemical reactions to transform materials (like biomass) into other forms, such as biochar or biofuels.

Life cycle greenhouse gas analysis

An evaluation of the total greenhouse gas emissions and removals associated with a product, process, or service throughout its entire lifespan, from raw material extraction to disposal.
