Biochar as an environmental measure by Google
Biochar is a material created from biomass that helps improve soil quality while also capturing and storing carbon dioxide permanently. With these partnerships, Google is adding this technology to its growing portfolio of climate solutions, which includes methods such as enhanced rock weathering and direct air capture.
These agreements will contribute to the elimination of 200,000 tons of carbon dioxide, reinforcing Google’s commitment to net-zero emissions and fostering the scalability of biochar to address global climate change.
Other initiatives such as Frontier and Symbiosis are also supported by the big tech company. These projects are designed to accelerate the development of carbon capture technologies. These collaborations show the company’s leadership in creating a cleaner and more sustainable future.
