Wird #ClimateEngineering durch #Olivin|verwitterung die #Klimakatastrophe stoppen? Nein! Aber trotzdem muss die Menschheit es anwenden. 🔥🌏🔥
👉90% Emissionsreduktion + 10% CO₂-Entnahme + kein Rumgeeier mehr!

Greenhouse Adventures: A journey through unexpected obstacles (Part 2)
Keeping a long-term monoculture greenhouse experiment with hundreds of pot experiments alive and working over 2-3 years is not as easy as one could think.
In our latest blog post, we share the interesting journey of combating various pests like powdery mildew, thrips, and aphids which all have tried to wreck our EW greenhouse experiment. For every possible intervention we must consider the potential effects on our weathering experiments.
Discover how we used a natural raw milk treatment to successfully eradicate powdery mildew, leaving our plants healthy and thriving. Learn about our creative approach to managing thrips with lacewing larvae and predatory mites. Despite some initial challenges, our efforts paid off, resulting in a significant reduction of these pesky pests.
Finally, read about our battle with aphids and how ladybug larvae became our new allies. These tiny, beneficial insects are helping us keep aphids at bay, ensuring our plants remain vibrant and healthy. Click the link to dive into our full story and see how we're keeping our greenhouse green and pest-free!

Great plenary discussion during the #ERW Q&A session #NegativeCO2emissions

My head is being filled with new information at a non-sustainable rate.
@MEVorrath explaining co pyrolyzing minerals and biomass = rockchar with higher carbon yield.
(Thanks @brunncy for the photo. @RogerAines is very photogenic in the background)

@MEVorrath talking about #biochar in an #ERW session? Yes, not just any biochar, but #ROCKCHAR ! Co-prolysing biomass with alkaline materials has many benefits #negativeCO2emissions

The breaks are of course the best thing with in-person conferences. Love meeting everyone! (@EliMLarson , @MEVorrath , @hausfath here)

"New study finds that at economic costs of 130 to 295 $/tCO2 net-removed, ocean liming (#OAE using hydrated lime) could be a competitive #CDR option which could make a significant contribution towards the Paris climate target."

Sie hat am #Südpol Bodenproben entnommen, nur um dann festzustellen, dass ihr das pure Beobachten der #Klimaerhitzung nicht genug ist. Sie will an Lösungen arbeiten – Perfekt also für unseren #Podcast rund um optimistische Klimageschichten

Together with @carbonfuture and CRP we are proud sponsors of the 𝗘𝘂𝗿𝗼𝗽𝗲𝗮𝗻 𝗕𝗶𝗼𝗰𝗵𝗮𝗿 𝗠𝗮𝗿𝗸𝗲𝘁 𝗥𝗲𝗽𝗼𝗿𝘁 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟯/𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟰 from EBI. Biochar production grew by 41% to 49Kt (=130Kt of CDR) with 70Kt (=200Kt CDR) expected for 2024!
A new report published by the European Biochar Industry Consortium explores the science behind biochar as a durable carbon dioxide removal (CDR) pathway.

Finally there is a dedicated association for the enhanced weathering industry, and we helped to bring it to life!
The Enhanced Weathering Alliance (EWA) #EWA is officially launched today!
Thanks to @sebmanhart and Adam Wolf and all the others for pushing this forward!

Christina Schubert, who wrote her master thesis about our XXL lysimeter project that aims to understand enhanced weathering as a means of carbon dioxide removal, has received an award for her thesis.
Congratulations!
