This list is dedicated to introducing the emerging, exciting new climate-energy-soils technology called "Biochar" to those who are new to the concept. This is the list for newcomers to come with their first questions. Those with more experience with the biochar topic will answer those questions and help direct people to the appropriate specialized list for more detailed answers to their questions.

Three specialized lists are now available for the detailed discussions that this technology demands: Biochar Production, the Biochar in Soils, Biochar Funding and the Biochar Policy discussion groups.
