« on: May 02, 2014, 10:36:25 AM »
I've added this board to the pvbiochar.org forum to help connect those looking for biochar with the biochar marketplace.

Have biochar for sale and want people to know about it?  Posting about it here is a good place to start.

To create a new posting, rather than reply to this post, please go to http://pvbiochar.org/forum/index.php/board,54.0.html and click 'New Topic'.

Thanks!

« on: January 10, 2014, 11:41:13 AM »
A seminar series on “Climate, Energy, Biochar and Agriculture” will be presented weekly on Thursdays at 4 pm at the University of Massachusetts in Chenoweth Laboratory, Room 113 (Note that Chenoweth Lab is behind Stockbridge Hall, where the seminar series has been held in previous years).

The first of these seminars will be on Thursday, Jan. 23 and will be a presentation about the series and an overview by Prof., Stephen Herbert. The following 12 seminars will be by UMass professors and invited speakers who are authorities in these areas.

The complete schedule may be found at the website of the Pioneer Valley Biochar Initiative at http://pvbiochar.org , that of International Biochar Initiative at
http:// www.biochar-international.org or of the UMass Stockbridge School of Agriculture at http://stockbridge.umass.edu under “Course Descriptions” for STOCKSCH 491B and STOCKSCH 691. Further information may be obtained from Prof. Herbert at
sherbert@cns.umass.edu or by phone at 413-545-2250.

« on: January 02, 2014, 02:48:25 PM »
This podcast isn't about biochar, but is a good intellectual analysis of our current local/global financial system and energy consumerism and impending eco[nomic] & eco[logic] bankruptcy.
