Your Call 061109 How can we best care for the ground beneath our feet?

How can we best care for the ground beneath our feet? On the next Your Call, we'll continue our series on the commons by focusing on dirt, an invaluable substance we mostly take for granted. We'll speak with Gene Rosow, producer & director of Dirt! The Movie. The film tells the little known story of the relationship between dirt and humans. What can we do to preserve one of our most precious natural resources? Send us an email at feedback@yourcallradio.org or join us live at 11 am. What are you doing to enrich your soil? It's Your Call with Rose Aguilar and you.
