Soil is pretty remarkable stuff. It provides us with 95% of our food, helps regulate the earth’s atmosphere, and It’s a bigger carbon sink than all the world’s forests combined. In fact, it enables all life on this planet to exist. So why do we treat it like dirt ? Guardian journalist Josh Toussaint-Strauss finds out how we’re destroying the earth’s soil, but also discovers some of the progress we’ve made in the race to protect it.
