Production of biochar (the carbon (C)-rich solid formed by pyrolysis of
biomass) and its storage in soils have been suggested as a means of abating
climate change by sequestering carbon, while
Hi Andrew and Renaud,
SUGAR looks extremely dangerous to me. The animation here near the top of

For those who never worked at Livermore, phrases like these:
