Update on RTE Project in Costa Rica
Jatropha Seeds
In partnership with Ocean Arks International's John Todd, RTE's research project in Costa Rica is currently documenting evidence of the enhanced growth of trees by using volcanic rockdust to enrich the soil while reforesting previously devastated, overgrazed grasslands. See this article to learn more about our efforts to increase carbon sequestration through remineralization in Costa Rica.

From Soil to Summit: Brazil and China join forces in groundbreaking research on soil remineralization
Set against colossal mountains shaped by tectonic forces, the Great Wall of China embodies the persistence and courage of its people. For geologist Suzi Huff Theodoro, it speaks to geological processes and a diversity of rocks. It was a fitting symbol of the deep potential for remineralization, with opportunities continuing to unfold for China and Brazil through scientific collaboration.
A professor of environment and rural development at the University of Brasília, Theodoro recently traveled to China to present research on soil remineralization (rochagem) — taking ...
