Aprašymas

HUMUS, the black gold of the earth

Learn about the connections between humus, health and good food, and how to make your own deep soil for life.

Humus is the most precious resource on earth. Our survival depends on it, and it is running out. A report by the UN in 2015 has estimated that at current rates of soil loss the world has 60 years of harvests left .

In other words, in 2075 there will be nothing left to harvest, unless we do something to support the regeneration of humus. Dramatic losses of fertile soils are caused mostly by human activities. However, humans can also cultivate humus and stimulate its growth.

HUMUS, the black gold of the earth is an invitation to become Earthkeepers. If we want to take care of Mother Earth, then we must get to know her better.

What makes the soil come alive?

What kind of food does the soil need?

In what environment can the soil-population grow and thrive?

These are some of the questions explored in this book.

Everybody can do something to take care of our soils and keep the earth alive. It is easier than you might think.
