In a bid to become more sustainable, Stockholm has found an unusual ally, old Christmas trees and other garden debris. The Swedish capital is using green waste to power homes and reduce its carbon footprint.
People around the city are gathering up garden waste and dead Christmas trees from fellow residents and city parks, and turning it into an eco-friendly type of charcoal called biochar.
"Producing biochar from organic waste could offset the carbon footprint of the global transport sector."
