A year later, the first conference brought people from around the world together, and the idea began to grow. The early days weren’t easy. They had to build everything from scratch: research, standards, even awareness. But they kept going.

In 2006, a small group of people came together with a simple but powerful belief: biochar could help fight climate change. At the time, few were paying attention. What started as a conversation turned into something bigger.

When did you first hear the word #biochar? Our co-founder Professor Stephen Joseph reminisces on the first time he *made* biochar, which was back in 1975. But they didn't call it biochar back then. Their kiln was made out of granite rocks, because that's what they had.
