community building: farmers, scientists, engineers, entrepreneurs, and more
Summary of Activities
In March 2009, Ted’s eye was caught by an article about Terra Preta authored by Fiona Harvey in the Financial Times. The article was talking about carbon sequestration. The world was optimistic about Copenhagen then, and briefly afterwards, Ted met Paul Anderson in Kitchener through Lloyd Helferty, one of the directors of the Canadian Biochar Initiative Shortly afterwards he saw the TED talk by Amy Smith, and attended his first Stove Camp at the Aprovecho Research Center in Oregon. The New Yorker published an article about Clean Stoves shortly afterwards.
Talked with Hugh McLaughlin. Thought there was more to this thing than those guys were talking about at stove camp.
In 2009, Ted attended an IBI meeting at the University of Colorado, and was filled with optimism, and started to think intensively about Carbon.
In October 2010, he attended the North American Biochar Symposium in Massachussetts, where he arrived to the conclusion that the road towards a Carbon Neutral World needed a financial incentive, and started searching for that angle.
Uruguay. In March and February 2013, Ted visited Maria in Uruguay and rented the farm from Deborah von Habsburg in Jose Ignacio where he progressed greatly in the writing of this essay “Clean up after yourself” The development of an optimum mechanism for the creation of a world Carbon market”, which he publishes on the Web shortly afterwards.
In October 2013, Ted attended the North American Biochar Conference.
In 2013, Ted was looking into the viability of the traditional charcoal methods, and organized meetings with farmers, cientists, micro-financing especialists, and in Accra he met Kathrin Russel, a soil scientist who was doing research about corn husk biochar. He travelled extensively through Africa with Amira, between the months of xxx and xxx.
In xxx 2013, he also traveled to Vietnam, where he met Paul Olivier and discovered Alexis Belonio’s rice husk gasifier stove, vermiculture, and the work being done with the black soldier fly.
