Earth Day Event – Exploring Biochar as a Sustainable Solution

You’re invited to join us this Earth Day for a public presentation exploring the potential of biochar as a more sustainable alternative to traditional fertilizers.

This 4th year capstone project for the Bachelor of Environmental Studies, developed in collaboration with IonGlobal and NSCAR, looks at how biochar, including applications using human biosolids, could improve soil health, reduce environmental impacts, and contribute to more sustainable agricultural practices. We’ll be sharing our findings, discussing feasibility, and opening up the conversation to broader environmental and community perspectives.

April 22, 7:00 PM, Don and Marion McDougall Hall, Room 242

This event is open to everyone, and we welcome students, faculty, community members, and anyone interested in sustainability or environmental innovation.

A live stream will also be available for those who can’t attend in person. If you’d like access to the stream, feel free to reach out.

If you have any questions or would like the link to join online, please contact Evan eaherbert@upei.ca or Reece rrpackman@upei.ca

Hosted by Evan, Max, and Reece in partnership with IonGlobal and North Shore Climate Action and Resilience (NSCAR).

We look forward to seeing you there!
