WHY WRITE A BOOK ABOUT SOIL?
Soil concerns us all – whether we live in the countryside or the city.
It provides us with everything we need, and its condition is crucial for the climate, biodiversity and our survival.
Without fertile soil – no food, no clothing, no building materials, no medicine. – Hervé Lognonné
The ground beneath our feet is the foundation for all life, but all too often we forget its vital importance.
In this thought-provoking book, Hervé Lognonné shines a light on the soil's vital role for humanity.
He takes us on a journey into the world of soil to examine how climate change is challenging it – and our future.
With insight and concrete examples, he uncovers the soil's hidden life, structure and history and discusses humanity's role and responsibility in its development.
Along the way he introduces Danish actors who are already paving the way for a sustainable future.
"Soil – The Future Begins Here" is an indispensable book for anyone passionate about our soil – from climate enthusiasts, farmers and decision-makers to gardeners and nature lovers.
Hervé Lognonné is a practical ecologist, speaker and garden writer.
He is French and has lived on Funen for over 40 years.
