SlopeGuard is an innovative slope stabilization system that utilizes biochar produced from invasive Pleco fish to reduce erosion and landslide risks. The biochar enhances soil structure, improves water retention, and supports vegetation growth, enabling stronger root systems for long-term slope stability. The modular design integrates drainage channels, vegetation support, and anchoring mechanisms to manage runoff and reinforce vulnerable slopes. By converting an invasive species into a valuable environmental resource, SlopeGuard promotes sustainability and circular economy principles. The innovation contributes to safer communities while supporting environmental restoration and aligns with Sustainable Development Goals 6, 11, 13, and 15.
