Biochar for Green Cities

November 16-17, 2021 (online)

 

This two-day workshop was all about using biochar in an urban environment, specifically for urban trees.

We covered the entire urban value chain for biochar, including the (almost famous) biochar history of the City of Stockholm, the benefits of biochar, how to buy it, produce it, and use it, and much more.

The workshop was targeted at cities and communities, but contains many relevant information for everyone interested in biochar. On this site, you can re-watch the presentations from the workhop.

We thank our presenters for their valuable contribution to this event.
