Here is the article

Yes intuitively you would. but I remember reading an article about this and
being shocked by the area of new man made lakes we had made in the last
70-100 years.
I am sorry I read this along time ago and I read so many environment science
type articles I can't remember the details..
(Later toady-got to go now-I wll see if I can support my bold assertion with
some facts via google.)

This is "two birds with one stone"!  Why not?  Why isn't "biochar" (charcoal

You will get no arguments from me on this.
Although i would like to see most char come from pyrolisis so the energy can
be harvested and as many polluting gasses as possible are contained. The
rush to make char in the backyard worries me a bit.

I think TP is the best way of sequestering carbon I have seen or read about.
That is why I keep protelyzing  about it
