40-Year Biochar Industry Pioneer Joins Restore.Earth — The Physical Truth Infrastructure Platform Owned and Operated by SGTM
Restore.Earth is the commercial operating platform of Sustainable Green Team, Ltd. (OTC: SGTM) — built entirely on SGTM’s patent-protected Physical Truth Infrastructure. Every verification event processed through Restore.Earth runs on SGTM’s 169 pending patents, 850,000+ lines of proprietary code, and permanent distributed ledger infrastructure. Investors and partners engaging with Restore.Earth are engaging directly with SGTM’s technology and intellectual property.
ASTATULA, Fla., April 13, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Sustainable Green Team, Ltd. (OTC: SGTM), builder of the world’s first Physical Truth Infrastructure, today announced that Phil Blom, CEO of BioEnergy Innovations Global, Inc. and founder of Terra Char™, has joined the Restore.Earth platform as Strategic Ambassador for the Soil and Biochar Verification Sector.

Blom brings more than 40 years of agricultural and BioEnergy industry experience to SGTM, including building and selling the national bovine genetics distribution company Genetic Horizon Group to Semex of Guelph, Ontario, Canada in 1999, founding BioEnergy Innovations Global in 2009, and developing the Terra Char™ trademark in 2013 — establishing fixed carbon content and H/C ratio quality standards now recognized across the biochar industry. His 38-state distribution network and 15 years of relationships across carbon registries, biochar operators, equipment manufacturers, and agricultural markets represent one of the most comprehensive commercial networks in the U.S. biochar sector.
Blom joins SGTM to unite the biochar and soil carbon market into distributed ledger verification from seed to food chain. Through SGTM’s SoilChain™ and TeleBiochar Carbon Stack™ patent architectures — both integral components of the Restore.Earth platform — every biochar production event is GPS-confirmed, AI-validated, and recorded to a permanent, publicly auditable distributed ledger — generating Biochar Carbon Removal Credits with independently verifiable proof records satisfying ICVCM Core Carbon Principles, EU CSRD Scope 3, and DoD FORGE requirements from a single verified physical event.
Terra Char™ quality standards, which established fixed carbon content and H/C ratio thresholds as industry benchmarks, now serve as the physical verification baseline that Restore.Earth’s distributed verification infrastructure — owned and operated by SGTM — anchors to permanent, tamper-proof digital records. The combination closes the final gap between biochar science and ICVCM Core Carbon Principles compliance — the most rigorous carbon credit integrity standard now required by institutional buyers, governments, and the EU Carbon Removal Certification Framework.
“The problem has never been the science of biochar. The problem has been verification. SGTM built the proof infrastructure that lets us make a soil carbon permanence claim and prove it on a permanent public ledger before the credit is ever issued. That changes everything.” — Phil Blom, Strategic Ambassador, Restore.Earth Soil & Biochar Verification Sector
“Phil Blom has spent 40 years ahead of every market he has entered. His network, his credibility, and his conviction in the circular economy are exactly what the Restore.Earth soil and biochar sector needs to reach its full potential. The world’s best verification infrastructure now has the world’s best biochar network behind it.” — Tony Raynor, Founder and CEO, Sustainable Green Team, Ltd. (OTC: SGTM)
Sustainable Green Team, Ltd. (OTC: SGTM) is the developer and sole owner of the Restore.Earth Physical Truth Infrastructure — the world’s first GPS-confirmed, AI-verified, satellite-cross-referenced, distributed-ledger-verified platform. Built on 169 pending patent applications spanning 13 institutional domains, the platform represents a $47 trillion total addressable market across 195 nations. Restore.Earth requires GPS-confirmed physical action before any payment, carbon certificate, government contract, or compliance document can be authorized — making fraud architecturally impossible before it can occur. SGTM is headquartered in Astatula, Florida.
