I am a 52 year old artist. I have always found the inspiration for my creativity in the complexity and elegance of nature. I have long sought to find meaning in my life through the attempt to create beauty.

I no longer believe that is enough. I want all that creativity and energy to go into protecting this gift we have been given, our home, our planet.

After many years of talking to people, listening, reading and researching : I have found a powerful tool to use in this work. Biochar. Biochar is charcoal that can be used to heal the planet. Using a technique refered to as low temprature pyrolysis we can co produce CO2 negative energy and a material which can sequester atmospheric CO2 while it increases soil tilth. I have helped start a non-profit organization, in Seattle to raise awareness and promote it's use: www.seachar.org This is a proven, safe, distributed point and scalable

tool.

The list of potential good effects are long. Help us spead the word. Pick up the tools and get to work. We have a lot to do.
