The great forests of the Western US are mighty storehouses of carbon and life. But poor management, exclusion of natural fire and climate change are having a terrible impact. We need boots on the ground, converting woody debris to biochar to restore healthy forest soils and sequester carbon. This video describes the methods and technology for making biochar in the woods, and proposes a program for mobilizing and paying our youth to do this important work to save our forests and our climate.
