The Sustainability Club is hosting a movie showing in the K1 building in room 211. We'll also be providing snacks and drinks!
KISS THE GROUND is a documentary that explores the first viable, low-cost way to reverse climate change through (drum roll)... Soil. When cared for properly, soil (a.k.a. "dirt") has the potential to sequester much of the carbon dioxide that humans have emitted into the atmosphere. There's only one catch: our modern, industrialized, monocrop-based agriculture is killing the microbial life in the soil that does the carbon sequestering ("biosequestration"). But there's hope. A radical group of scientists, farmers, ranchers, activists, and government types are banding together in a global movement toward a new type of agriculture called "regenerative farming" that increases soil life, stores water and sequesters CO2. These people come from diverse backgrounds, but they share a common commitment - to heal the world's soils before it's too late. KISS THE GROUND is the story of a powerful solution to one of humanity's greatest challenges.
