Reforestation used for biomass energy is becoming a major driver to combat climate change and desertification. Brazil and US annouced a new agreement for 12 million ha
Soil regeneration through biomass to fix damaged mine lands
Mining sector may now have a possible way to monetize soil regeneration in degraded lands. While deforested areas can only produce high yields under certain methods, our solutions sequester massive amounts of CO2, produce energy or bio-products creating income in social inclusive models.
Non-food biomass in US to reach 1bn ton in 2040
Non-food Biomass plantations would take a major role in United States bioeconomy during next decades.
Sustainable agriculture to combat the effects of El Niño in the Dry Corridor of Central America
Extreme weather events have a greater impact on rural communities and in areas of subsistence farming. Due to climate change, these natural disasters are becoming more devastating and affect billions of people around the world.
Biomass EU market to increase reforestation in US
Biomass markets in EU are expected to push US reforestation programs for timber and pellets in Southern states, USDA Forest service found.
Energy crops can improve EU soil fertility
Recent studies on perennial agriculture to produce biomass for energy have found strong evicence of soil health benefits and carbon sequestration.
Energy crops biomass and ecological services
Energy crops in recent projects in the Caribbean have been implemented with our design of biomass hedgerows combining 2 species. Ecological services and renewable energies working together.
Energy crops: study shows increased biodiversity
Energy crops and in particular short rotation coppice, is being suggested to promote biodiversity while renewable energy is produced.
Energy crops: politics, lobbies and a biobased economy
A very recent sensationalist study from NGO Birdlife indirectly suggests to keep existing monocultures in Europe and fossil energy sources. We suggest a greener scenario where more perennial biomass crops will reduce carbon to imprtove a bio-based economy.
Perennial energy crops stimulate belowground fauna, new study says
Perennial energy crops and biodiversity could be benefitial for fauna in metal contaminated soils, said a very recent article published in Biomass and Bioenergy Journal (Feb 2014).
