IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActy2Grp/Desc0Conversion of waste biomass into biochar using pyrolysis at a community scale.

IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActy3Grp/Desc0Climate Foundation further has been researching and designing Marine Permaculture technologies that can restore overturning circulation in the ocean and provide food, feed, fertilizer and biofuels to ocean countries globally. It can also reverse coral bleaching in key areas and potentially mitigate the worst effects of climate change in oceanic and coastal environments.. Marine Permaculture grows seaweed, fish habitat and fish feed for growing hundreds of tons of fish and thousands of tons of marine biomass each year per array. Over the past several years, Climate Foundation has observed the mass coral bleaching globally. The coral bleaching observed in Hawaii in 2015 was the worst bleaching event in the last half a century on Hawaii. Climate Foundation conducted planning meetings with the Honolulu SeaWater Air Conditioning corporation, planning the development of a reef cooling system for protecting coral reef from peak summer temperatures. This system will utilize the outfall temperatures of cool seawater without transferring nutrients. A successful demonstration of this infrastructure will pave the way to protect high-value reefs across the tropical oceans.
