Kim, The whole point of writing BURN was to attempt to expand what we saw as limited perspective about biochar or what you've called a dangerous misperception. We would love to see it taken up by acad

As we say in the book, the number 50, is a "back of the envelope" estimate, or first approximation, based upon a widening of the parameters used by Dominic Woolf, James Amonette, Alayne Street-Perrott
