A clever little film from the ELD Initiative (http://eld-initiative.org/) on the value of soil and the reasons why we should be pursuing sustainable land management systems.

Very good video, shame though there is no mention of the wildlife aspect of degraded soil on our landscapes. No small wonder the wildlife is dwindling in variety and numbers since the general ecosystems aren’t given the care they require of them. Look after the skin of the earth and it will be able to breathe more readily.
