📅 April 17, 2026 – Biochar in Action: applications for climate, agriculture and industry

On April 17, the event “Biochar in Action: solutions for soils, cities and climate” will explore the role of biochar as a carbon removal solution and its applications across different sectors.

The session will cover:

  • biochar in agriculture and soil health
  • biochar in livestock systems and emission reduction
  • urban applications and climate resilience
  • innovative materials and circular bioeconomy

An interactive and accessible event designed to showcase how biochar is emerging as one of the most concrete and scalable solutions within the carbon removal landscape.
