My name is Kai. Strategic advisor on the one hand, and project manager on the other hand. In Apeldoorn I am involved in two European projects, one of them is THREE C.
Apeldoorn´s role within THREE C is to create a regional hub in which the production and use of Biochar will be stimulated. Our aim is not to produce Biochar but we do see opportunities to apply it within our municipality. 
 Coordinating and enquiring with stakeholders to get them onboard is a great challenge and we are ready for it! By organizing the right network, dissemination and forming partnerships with all relevant stakeholders we believe it is possible to contribute in achieving our circular goals as well.
 
Looking forward to meet the participants!

What is the future? Rocket science and flying to Mars? For me it is the wise and sustainable use of raw materials. Also short distances. Taking into account all people and the environment as well, not just the "astronauts". And I am convinced that with THREE C and the circular carbon economy we can take big steps towards this liveable future.

As a project manager with Severn Wye with a background in renewable and sustainable energy engineering I have the pleasure of working as part of the THREE C consortium. Biochar promises so much potential to tackle the climate crisis, from carbon sequestration to water & air quality to clean heat. 
Severn Wye are excited to be working to support the development of the circular carbon economy and hopefully see some of that promise develop into reality.]]> 2021-07-06 08:40:10 UTC https://padlet.com/Tim_Scholze/4kgmphrithbkw7i6/wish/1638579377 William Livesey, Forester, Stobart Forestry https://padlet.com/Tim_Scholze/4kgmphrithbkw7i6/wish/1640398878 Hi Everyone, 
As a Forester with Stobart Forestry, my main focus is to help bring undermanaged woodlands back into management. There is a desire, and need, to help obtain the most diverse array of products from a woodland as possible, if we are to promote sustainable management of small woodland blocks. With a personal interest in Biochar/charcoal production, it was only natural to expand that into seeing how/if it could work within, and outside of a woodland context. ]]> 2021-07-07 13:58:20 UTC https://padlet.com/Tim_Scholze/4kgmphrithbkw7i6/wish/1640398878 Carlotta Ludig, Frankfurt, Germany https://padlet.com/Tim_Scholze/4kgmphrithbkw7i6/wish/1640496223 Hi,

We're a community benefit society in west Wales and are developing a social enterprise which protects and enhances biodiversity whilst also supporting the rural economy. Biochar could be a key product in this, as it uses the material from hedgerow & woodland management and feeds positively back into the health of the soil and therefore also thr farm.
