Biochar, or Terra Preta, is a type of charcoal and like any is created through the process of Pyrolysis (burning when no or very little oxygen is present).

For a movement is only as strong as the commitment that lies in each of it's participants and when they join with each other, when global movements mold into one, it can become unbreakable and moreover, can succeed.
Ernest Hemingway once wrote, “The world is a fine place and worth fighting for”. I believe in a better future, because a better future believes in us.
