- Science
In the miniseries "Get the Dirt on Soil" we dive into the soil crisis by interviewing President Obama’s science advisor, Dr. Jo Handelsman, and an innovator in the green ag industry, Keith Heidecorn of Locus AG.
In this final episode of this mini series, we look to the future and investigate if there is hope we can combat the looming soil crisis. What are scientists and policy makers doing to address this problem? Will microbes save the day? What is our role as individuals in protecting our soils? Listen in as we “dig deep” and gain more insight from our guests, Dr. Jo Handelsman and Keith Heidecorn, on what we need to do to save the soil microbial communities who are fighting hard for their survival.
