[Terrapreta] Pure Organics Vs. Biological Agriculture

[Sean K. Barry]

Hi David,

Yes, again, I think you are right.  This is one of my greatest hopes, too.  I am actually throwing in most of my creativity at the task.

Regards,

SKB

  sounds like a challenge for creative thinking and innovative design.  considering much of the eastern woodlands of north america were burned to make charcoal for blacksmiths and foundries, i think our modern industry and technology can devise a way to get the job done.  after all, the price of crude oil just went over $80/barrel.  and besides, if a gang of artist in california built a gasifier on the back of a pickup truck, what can some creative designers come up with.

  The problem becomes one of finite chemical energy in the feedstock and efficient processing of the feedstock into charcoal.  Handling the biomass; harvesting it, bailing it, moving it, chopping it, drying it, etc. all take energy. _______________________________________________
