2,000 years ago, farmers in the Amazon Basin invented a simple way to improve their farmland. Through a process called pyrolysis, they turned crop leftovers (like corn stalks) into biochar.
The deep pores of biochar retain water and nutrients, and encourage beneficial microbial growth. In fact, just 1 gram of biochar contains more surface area in its pores than an entire football field—lots of room to store the kinds of things plants love.
Scientists have since discovered that this process also removes CO2 from the carbon cycle. By turning plant material into stabilized carbon, we can store CO2 in soil for thousands of years, helping to reverse the effects of climate change.

About Willow
Carbon Sinks absorb and store more carbon than they release. They are climate positive, meaning their negative footprint has the capability to reverse the effects of global warming. The Paris Agreement calls for the urgent need to build more carbon sinks, which is why we created Willow.
As scientists discovered the fertile, biochar-based soil ancient farmers had created in the Amazon Basin, they first noted its uncanny ability to retain water and nutrients, and how it promoted the growth of plant-friendly microbes. In fact, multiple studies show that biochar can retain up to 10% more water and increase plant yields by up to 20%.
Climate scientists have since found that biochar acts as a powerful carbon sink. For every pound produced, 3 pounds of CO2 are removed from the carbon cycle.
