\n\u2022 Gut: I was a bit disappointed the the graphic focused on fear-mongering moreso than it did on offering information on direct solutions – ie how the issues are to be solved moreso than who should solve them, though I was happy to be able to learn from the graphic.
\n\u2022 So What: I hadn’t thought about soil being technically non renewable due to the difficulty and slow speed of creating it from decomposing materials, and the amount of energy nearly always lost during the process.\u00a0 I think this was the perspective the creator was looking for – an increased urgency about the matters of disappearing soil across the world. The data came from the UN’s Food and Agriculture organization – a resource we are sure to engage with in class.
\n\u2022 Now What: I don’t believe our students have realized just how important soil is, and how quickly it is slipping away from us – mostly because we’ve been focused on how it is used and restored, not how it is currently being destroyed.\u00a0 This information can be used to tug at heartstrings and increase the understood importance of preserving and restoring soil.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
