Shadowing Practice: What is Biochar? - Learn English Speaking with Video

What is biochar?

Biochar is a charcoal -like product.

It is made by heating any form of organic matter, biomass, in a controlled process with limited oxygen called pyrolysis.

This product is called biochar when it is used as a soil amendment

or for other uses that store the carbon in a durable form.

Through the use of these technologies, we can capture, utilize, and store carbon for the long term.

We can reduce waste.

We can produce clean and renewable bioenergy.

And we can remove CO2 from the atmosphere.

More than 50 million tonnes of residual biomass, including agricultural residues, green waste,

and other organic waste, is burned or landfilled every year in Australia.

This is a waste of a valuable resource.

it also causes pollution including greenhouse gas emissions

but these wasted resources can be turned into a solid form

of carbon biochar globally every year biochar could sustainably remove billions of tons of excess co2 already in our atmosphere

while also enhancing food production and regenerating degraded lands.

Over 99 % of CO2 captured by biomass re -enters our atmosphere as part of the natural carbon cycle.

Pyrolyzing wasted plant biomass into biochar intercepts the cycle

and converts carbon into a form that is typically stable for centuries to millennia.

Biochar is a sustainable and climate -friendly way to transform organic resources into a valuable carbon product

and renewable energy for a circular, regenerative, new carbon economy.

There are also many proven and emerging markets for biochar that increase profitability and reduce or draw down carbon.

Agriculture, horticulture, livestock, cropping, animal feed to improve animal health and reduce methane emissions,

soil carbon sequestration, water management and filtration, mine and land rehabilitation, building and construction.

With more uses of biochar emerging, the global market is growing rapidly and is forecast to reach almost 4 billion by 2025.

Australia is on the cusp of developing a world -leading biochar industry thanks to our testing, technologies, research and high potential resources.

ANZMIG's Code of Practice is guiding industry best practice for sustainable production classification and safe use of biochar

australia's industry is ready to scale up and create important economic social

and environmental opportunity becoming a billion dollar industry by 2030 what is the next step we need commitment

and leadership from corporates capital government entrepreneurs and academics

the australian biochar industry 2030 roadmap outlines a pathway forward for

biochar industry scale -up the roadmap has the potential to remove

existing co2 from the atmosphere equivalent to 10 to 15 percent

of australia's annual emissions provide 10 000 to 20 000 jobs in regional

and rural areas improve soil health and agricultural productivity Restore degraded lands to their true capacity.

You can help put a foot on the brakes for climate change.

¿Qué es la Técnica de Shadowing?

Shadowing es una técnica de aprendizaje de idiomas respaldada por la ciencia, desarrollada originalmente para la formación de intérpretes profesionales y popularizada por el políglota Dr. Alexander Arguelles. El método es simple pero poderoso: escuchas audio en inglés nativo y lo repites en voz alta de inmediato, como una sombra que sigue al hablante con solo 1-2 segundos de retraso. A diferencia de la escucha pasiva o los ejercicios de gramática, el shadowing obliga a tu cerebro y músculos de la boca a procesar y reproducir simultáneamente patrones de habla reales. Las investigaciones muestran que mejora significativamente la precisión de la pronunciación, la entonación, el ritmo, el habla conectada, la comprensión auditiva y la fluidez al hablar, convirtiéndola en una de las metodologías más efectivas para la preparación del IELTS Speaking y la comunicación en inglés en el mundo real.
