Cover Story: Biochar—charcoal produced from biomass and applied to agricultural soils—is attracting attention from research and policymakers as a strategy for long-term sequestration of carbon in soils while improving soil quality. We reviewed the environmental implications of biochar deployment around three main aspects: climate, food security, and ecosystem quality. Biochar can deliver negative emissions at scale and contributes to the carbon removal required by the Paris agreements. Biochar application to soils has multiple environmental co-benefits and some trade-offs, which are dependent on production conditions, soil conditions, and management. Compared to other negative emission technologies, biochar is technologically mature and a cost-effective option with relatively low environmental risks.View this paper.
