About this episode
Today's episode is an excerpt from the Commune course, Soil is the Climate Solution with Finian Makepace, a co-founder of the organization Kiss the Ground. You can enjoy this program free for 5 days at onecommune.com/soil. In this lesson Finian shares how carbon is not the enemy. The goal is not to eliminate carbon, since all life is built from carbon. But rather, the goal is to build healthy soil with carbon through the incredible interactions that happen between plants and microorganisms underground. The result is that degraded soil is healed, and carbon is sequestered in a beneficial location. This is the magic of soil. Learn more about Commune at onecommune.com.
