Rock Solid
- in transit
- WASH
- cooking
- TLUD meets Rocket
- stick feedstock, front loading, continuous
- mesh & wok ring flame distributor and pot stand
- soil quench
Bushie TLUD
- at the shack
- WASH
- biochar for water filtration (no inoculation)
- inoculated Biochar, after quench, in stockpot->compost pile->growing systems
- TLUD (Navigator 'Backup' mainframe)
- stick or pellet feedstock, batch
- mesh & wok ring flame distributor and pot stand
- water quench
Both systems need to be tested once the burning/biochar season begins on May 1, 2025
My definition of 'Sustainable adaptation':
"The ability to adapt to and survive the environment, finding a niche to live regeneratively meeting one's needs, maintaining a spiritual connection to the Earth, leaving a 'net negative'
resource and pollution footprint behind during one's lifetime."
- Living within the parameters of ecosystems that form the building blocks of the environment
- Ideally, the environment left at the end of one's life is better overall than the beginning of one's life, leaving an inheritance for the 'Seventh Generation' in the future.
Biochar is the key to 'Sustainable adaptation' to a rapidly changing Planet. It ticks all the boxes of many post-structural movements, including:
- sustainability (biomass waste residue with clean emission biochar production in many cases)
- Permaculture ecological design (ticks ecological principle design boxes)
- regenerative growing systems (repairs the soil + biochar for more biomass and more biochar - circularity/perpetual motion eg. Agriculture, agroforestry, horticulture)
- Carbon negative renewable energy (pyrolysis with industrial heat and bioelectricity cogeneration possibility)
- Permanent Carbon removal to tackle climate heating (cooling down the climate)
- the growth problem (simultaneous degrowth and regrowth)
- appropriate stove and kiln technology in many cases (ticks apptech boxes, biomass fuel to biochar)
- landscape regeneration (regen agroforestry, with green walls in some regions to combat desertification encroachment)
- poverty eradication (CRM with BCR credit options, less ag inputs, higher yields)
- the global water crisis (water conservation, filtration and some irrigation free growing systems)
- the soil degradation problem (increased fertility, porosity, soil structure, CEC, WHC, erosion control)
- the agriculture chemical problem (less or no chemicals needed, healthier plants with less disease and pests)
- greener construction (eg.5% Biochar in concrete for 30% increased tensile strength)
- mine site cleanups (sucks up heavy metals and toxic chemicals->asphalt)
- MANY industries and applications are already benefiting with an exponentially growing list
