Biochar Burn with the Department of Natural Resources

Biochar Burn with the Department of Natural Resources

On February 25, 2021, we met with 15 Department of Natural Resources representatives from across the state, just north of Ford, Washington. Our goal was to demonstrate how our modular panel kiln can be assembled around existing piles of residual biomass, often referred to as slash piles. Our demonstration was designed to inform DNR reps on the feasibility of utilizing Biochar conversion to remove residual fuels from the forest, sequester carbon and create a soil amendment to enhance forest health.

This coming legislative session will be unlike any other. As the first all-remote legislative session, communication between constituents and their legislators will be both more accessible and more challenging. It's important for us to let our legislators know that a healthy climate, clean water and environmental justice are key to the kind of pandemic recovery and economic rebuilding we need to see in Washington state.
