A regular radio program called One Planet has included an item on Top Soil. It covers many aspects including no-till and Biochar. A podcast is found at: ...

Hey Mark, Had a tough week? You do know as well as I do that the TP sites are scattered throughout the Amazon river basin, sites are relatively small (< 20...

So.., The frequency and distribution seem to resemble simple midden heaps rather than deliberate, wholesale attempts at soil transformation? How were estimates...
Good question. If the TP sites are so hard to find or identify, who measured or calculated that there are 'x' sites at an average of 'y' hectares? Also, is...

Hi all 1. This thread started with Sean thanking Geralyn for a paper - which I agree was quite excellent and I join in thanking Geralyn. 2. I went back one...
Hi List, Here's another problem begging for a prescription of biochar; Organic Soils Continue to Acidify Despite Reduction in Acidic Deposition Recent Research...
Max, The last question is the easiest to answer, if reported evidence of fresh-water river sponge morphologies in the green-fired ceramics is indeed true. The...
Kevin asks: "Does that seem reasonable to you?" Mark answers: "No." Perhaps the "guide" in question was formally a NYC taxi driver accustomed to charging...
List: This is a follow up to my message yesterday on the Lenton-Vaughan (LV) geoengineering paper - in part triggered by Peter Read's response (repeated...
What I was thinking was that if 80Gt C go into biochar then only ~55% of that will have come from the atmosphere (with ~45% having been outgassed from the...

Group, I asked Julie Major about this total area question at the Canadian Initiative meeting in December and she indicated that the "size of France" refers to...
Peter and list: This is indeed helpful and likely the cause ( I now see). Thanks. I will check what they say for the other geoengineering approaches. I...
Wow! Kevin your persistent reasoning has gotten us a bonanza. Sometimes reading the "terra preta" story has been like playing the game where you whisper one...
Dear Biochar group members, LEED Accreditation is rapidly becoming the de facto green building credential, especially in today's increasingly tough job market....
Hi Peter, I thought the only source for carbon used to produce growth of biomass in plants came only from CO2 that is in the atmosphere. Plants do not absorb...

Dear Doug OK!! It is a good thing that we caught the error on the biochar List, rather than it being caught by a critical denier, who could show the wrongness...
... Sean you'remis interpreting what Peter is saying. Remember the atmosphere is not the only gaia organ that has absorbed this increase in CO2 from fossil ...

I would guess that no matter where you are on Earth (actually you don't really need to be on Earth), that everything under the Sun (or any other star for...
Sean, I believe what Peter is alluding to here is that a significant percentage of excess CO2 released into the atmosphere winds up being absorbed by the ...
Yes, Mark (Nando), thanks. Andrew was correcting my oversight just now, too. I get it now. Peter was right all along. So is Andrew, so are you. I read it...
