Rerun: Sequestering Carbon in Building Materials, with Dr. Sabbie Miller

About this episode

Dr. Sabbie Miller discusses the use of biochar for carbon sequestration in building materials.

Carbon dioxide, a main driver of climate change, is naturally drawn into oceans, trees, soil, and other carbon sinks. This week, we spoke with Dr. Sabbie Miller, a researcher at UC Davis, who’s working to sequester carbon in buildings with a material called biochar.
