If those same carbon-rich materials were incorporated into the soil instead of being made into biochar, they would quickly break down, releasing greenhouse gases like methane and carbon dioxide as they decompose. Ren points out one vital aspect of sustainable and climate-smart practices — that waste can often be repurposed.

This effect is explained clearly in this article by Discover Magazine. In fact, physics tells us that for every 1 degree Celsius of warming, our atmosphere can hold about seven percent more moisture. As water vapor itself is a potent greenhouse gas, more water vapor in the atmosphere means accelerated global warming.
