It is a strange phenomenon. "Bio" is the word the old Greeks used for "Life" and charcoal is deader than the dodo. It remains unchanged for a very long time. Life is change, growing trees and lots of life in the soil. Charcoal does not contribute to life at all since it remains unchanged.
It is really a pity that the worse the problems of the environment become the more simplistic and dangerous the popular "solutions" become.

I'm glad they're coming out against biochar finally also!
Around here they are cutting down trees to make biochar. Disgusting!
Thank you for the article!
Yes John I so agree with you about the biochar charcoal.

I am so glad that at last an official scientific institute has come out
against ""Biochar"". I have been writing about this for ten years at least
since I first did tests with it. I found seedlings and plants to grow less
vigorous with charcoal than without. And this is nothing but logical.
Charcoal is the oldest wood preservative known to man because all soil
organisms avoid it like the plague.

Beware the Biochar Initiative
Turning bioenergy crops into buried charcoal to sequester carbon does
not work, and could plunge the earth into an oxygen crisis towards mass
extinction
