disclosure.

Amendment No. 1 to Form 10-12G filed March 6, 2023
Item 1. Description of Business, page 4
1.Please clarify the meaning of scientific or technical terms the first time they are used in
order to ensure that lay readers will understand the disclosure. For example, please briefly
explain the meaning of biochar, carbon sequestration, H2S, GHG reduction, biomethane
and green waste. We also note your references to greenhouse gases CO2 and methane
appear to be used interchangeably with the terms "organic fertilizer" and "biomethane,"
respectively. Please clarify whether there are any differences in the meaning of these
terms.
2.We note your references on pages 5 and 6 of your "Phase I" plans to raise money to
complete the construction of organic fertilizer facility and that the principal product will
be organic fertilizer. Please expand your disclosure to discuss the additional phases of
your business plans, where applicable. Please also clarify, where appropriate, whether

you have started the construction of the organic fertilizer facility in California. If not,
please revise accordingly.
Current Operations and Strategy, page 5
3.Please provide a more detailed explanation of the Company’s current operations, carbon
farming, and the other forms of operations. For example, please revise to expand your
discussion of how biogas is collected and purified into produce methane, biomethane and
CO2 and developed into organic fertilizer that can be sold to customers. You also
disclose on page 6 that the potential customers for your organic fertilizer include farms
and large farming companies. Please expand your disclosure to discuss the expected
jurisdictions of your potential customer base. We refer to your disclosure that your
competitors are mainly located in China and India.
4.We note your disclosure on page 5 that an anaerobic digester can produce renewable
natural gas products that can be sold to customers, such as biomethane that can be directly
injected into the pipelines of PG&E or Socal Gas. Please clarify whether the anaerobic
digester you plan to construct produces biomethane that can be injected into the pipelines
or methane that can be used to generate electricity. Given that status of development and
the lack of disclosure regarding the production of biomethane and methane, it seems
premature to highlight this product and companies such as PG&E or Socal Gas
prominently in your Description of Business section. Please advise or revise accordingly.
5.You disclose on page 5 that building an anaerobic digester is "the way to recycle food
waste as renewable natural gas." Please clarify whether there are alternative methods and
processes to recycle waste as renewable natural gas, and if so, please revise these and
similar statements throughout your registration statement that imply that an anaerobic
digester may be the only way to recycle food waste as renewable natural gas.
Competition for the Companys current operations, page 6
6.We note your reference to certain established organic fertilizer manufacturers in the U.S.,
such as Scotts Miraclo-Gro, Midestern BioAg, among others. Please clarify whether any
of your competitors' organic fertilizer products also use anaerobic digester facilities to
produce the CO2 biogas product.

7.We note your disclosure that the high cost of organic fertilizer may hamper its market
growth. Please expand your disclosure of the high costs of organic fertilizer including,
but not limited to, the cost compared to conventional or chemical fertilizer as well as the
costs associated with producing organic fertilizer compared to conventional fertilizers.
You also disclose that research and development in the field of organic fertilizer can
provide various opportunities for future growth of the market. Please balance your
disclosure with equally prominent disclosure of the disadvantages of producing organic
fertilizer, such as the costs, expenses and time associated with manufacturing your

administered by the Rural Business-Cooperative Service that recently announced a $500
million grant toward the agricultural fertilizer and nutrient management sector. Please
expand your disclosure of the FPEF, including the eligibility and other requirements and
whether you have applied or plan to apply for such grants. We refer to your disclosure on

9.We note your statements on page 6 that organic fertilizers may result in an increased
relative economic benefit with respect to the use of conventional fertilizers, environmental
protection, improve soil structure, add nutrients, and assist in maintaining organic matter.
Please revise this section to provide support for your claims. For example, please provide
an objective summary of certain studies, if relevant.

with disclosure in the Risk Factors section on page 11 concerning risks related to the
handling and application of organic fertilizer with environmental regulations. Include here
a discussion of material regulation applicable to your business and plans. Refer to Item
