Carbon negative certification

For further events and developments, the CO2Offset Bank is proudly announcing to start soon printing Carbon negative certification to attach to goods or services: these badges testify the registered deposit of the biochar produced during the production of such goods or services. For example, they are going to be printed and attached to hot drinks or food cooked on top of a biochar-making stove, stating the deposit code of that biochar in the CO2OB database.

The customers who care they are going to know how much CO2 they have contribute to sequester buying their goods or services. 

Deposit 2013-jp002

This is the certificate documenting a workshop and biochar deposit happened during Yamauto matsuri 2013, not far from Kyoto in Japan. The workshop was held on the side of a conventional bamboo charcoal making workshop: many people stopped by, checked the stove and the whole process of pyrolisys.

The first deposit in Japan: 2013-JP001

The CO2OB has been active this summer 2013 in various locations in Japan, organizing free demonstrations and displays of a biochar production using an Elsa stove replica, during a few selected summer festivals.

This biochar was produced during Chiisana Inochino matsuri, in the festival's camping, while many people stopped by noticing that something different was going on.
