[Terrapreta] Leser Brown and charcoal as co2 negative stuff

[Richard Haard]

Dear Folke Gunther

Very Good power point presentation. I am happy to see my image of  
Larry Williams fingertips and charcoal with plant roots attached in  
your show and reference to our reading list.  Thank you. It would be  
very good to extend this reading list discussion to  a broader  group  
individuals with interests in atmospheric carbon mitigation.

This is the kind of information we need to assemble for purposes of  
showing the possibilities for using charcoal in soil.  It is my  
feeling that we must have reasons beyond sequestering carbon to bury  
charcoal which has competing economic uses. In Sweden, are you using  
charcoal in gardening, in water treatment?
