There’s a lot we can do in labs, the snag is often when you try to bring it to scale. Regardless, doing this is like trying to clean your lungs while still smoking
Yeah it’s a huge effort to do large scale biochar production. The dream is to take all those waste stems they’re burning and sequester the carbon in the soil. This will improve soil quality and improve air quality by stopping the burning, but it will cost big bucks.
There were more than 2,500 farm fires in Punjab state on Wednesday, north of Delhi, as farmers defied a Supreme Court-ordered ban on crop residue burning and the local police warned of legal action against them, The Indian Express newspaper reported.
This is a really intractable problem. I don't know what they are going to do.
This isn’t a wild fire. This is intentionally done by farmers to prepare their land for the next crop. The farmers know that the smoke is choking and killing people in Delhi. But they don’t care because the winds carry the smoke away from them. There is a ban imposed by the courts against this. And they still don’t care.
