Check out the trailer here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3iknWWKZOUs&feature=emb_logo From the film's website: "Kiss the Ground reveals that, by regenerating the world’s soils, we can completely and rapidly stabilize Earth’s climate, restore lost ecosystems and create abundant food supplies. Using compelling graphics and visua...ls, along with striking NASA and NOAA footage, the film artfully illustrates how, by drawing down atmospheric carbon, soil is the missing piece of the climate puzzle. This movie is positioned to catalyze a movement to accomplish the impossible to solve humanity’s greatest challenge, to balance the climate and secure our species future."
