THE SOLUTION MAY BE RIGHT UNDER OUR FEET

If there’s something that unites humanity, it’s that we all rely on food to survive. Whether we eat plant or animal foods, we need healthy soil to fuel the food we eat. Soil health determines plant health, animal health, human health, ecosystem health, and even the health of the climate. Soil health is essential for sequestering carbon, reducing greenhouse gas emissions, storing water, and improving the land’s resilience to climate change.

Regenerative agricultureUnfortunately, many of our farming practices (such as tilling and the use of pesticides) damage the health of the soil over time with potentially serious consequences. Thankfully, there is hope. By regenerating the world’s soils, not only can we stabilize our climate, but we can also replenish our vast water supplies, restore lost ecosystems, and create abundant global food supplies.

Regenerative agriculture is the solution. And our newest non-profit partner, Kiss the Ground, is on a mission to awaken people to the possibilities of this “new, old approach” to farming.

 

KISS THE GROUND

You may have seen the film, Kiss the Ground (and if not, we highly recommend it!). This film was produced by a non-profit organization of the same name. Kiss the Ground was established in 2013 as a grassroots advocacy organization with the goal of creating social awareness around the extraordinary potential of healthy soil. Since its inception, the non-profit has educated and activated millions of people. Its mission stands strong: not only to awaken people to the possibilities of regeneration, but also to inspire participation in the movement through immersive media and education initiatives.
