The Compost Story (Full Video) by Kiss The Ground 

There's more cities we just couldn't fit them all in. Shoutout to SEATTLE!!!

Hi and thank you for the love! Guido here, argentinean filmmaker for Kiss the Ground, and I couldn't agree more. You'll be glad to hear that we're currently working on the Spanish version of this video, and we're partnering with an organization named RIzoma to bring Kiss the Ground to Brasil! Definitely looking to bring more content to Latin America this year. Regarding subtitles, all of our content is open for contirbutions here in RU-vid, so if you'd like to collaborate with the subtitles for this video that would be great! Please shoot me an email at guido@kisstheground.com if you'd like to discuss any other way of collaboration. More life!

@@KissTheGround I'm in Portugal and desperately needing resources like this to communicate with local farmers, municipalities, etc. I'll have a word with friends who are native speakers and see if anyone's up for a European Portuguese translation (Brazilian Portuguese is a bit different). Would love a Portuguese version of The Soil Story too. I saw you already made a Spanish version of that.

@@quintadovalepermaculture We made one with Fernanda De Lima for The Soil Story but she wanted to reshoot and never got back to us. Yes, we will be making a Brazilian Compost Story. Maybe you can help

@@finianmakepeace772 I'm in Europe, not South America. I don't know any celebs I'm afraid, because that whole culture has zero interest for me, but I could put you in touch with lots of Portuguese people working for environmental regeneration.

@@quintadovalepermaculture Would love to hear about folks involved in regeneration!

Kristin Bauer thank you! Great idea :)

That's awesome! take a look at our "how to compost animated infographic" in our playlist COMPOSTING.

i use worms to vermicompost in my apartment. cute bin, throw them in, and they will eat all your veggie (non-citrus) scraps ^5

NANI?

Doing just that. Trouble is, our main tree is a beautiful walnut, I hear walnut tree leaves inhibit plant growth? ... we’ve now spread them all over our beds 😳

Called Kiss the ground on Netflix here's the trailer. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-K3-V1j-zMZw.html

@@kurtdowney1489 I know about Kiss the Ground lol. I meant specifically about Compost. I teach about Compost Production at a Jr College, and I've seen all sorts of docs about soil health, but not about the logistics of composting for Waste Management. There's a lot of stuff about it that nobody really covers.

@@brittaleighbaskerville8640 LA Green Grounds also There is a company out in Vegas that picks up food waste and makes compost.

Composting alone won't, but restoring degraded soils and ecosystems will.

Thank you for asking! We're working on it! Stay tuned ;)

Hi! Did you know about www.makesoil.org ?

@@KissTheGround no - I found one near me - thank you very much. I'll share this with local zero waste communities.

Perhaps because of the part where they say we’re the only creature that produces waste. This is ridiculous, pretty much every living being on Earth produces waste, be it poop, pee, oxygen, carbon dioxide, and many more things. Not because another living being will use it doesn’t mean it’s not waste for the organism that produced it

Awesome!

There's gonna be some chemicals in it but it's still biological matter. There are lots of weeds that take up poisons into their stems and roots out of the soil. Idk about all pesticides since glyphosate is very nasty stuff, but over time there's going to be microbes that evolve resistance to pesticides anyway, so we may as well just try and get back to how nature works when it comes to food production. I believe though that because yes, the pesticides are already on the plants and in the water supply, it's just going to be a problem we will have to deal with for decades, with hopefully regenerative agriculture that will either dilute the pesticides, and more sophisticated soil testing and mapping technologies so we can find out what areas are chemically distressed. Ideally we should stop all pesticides where possible, and switch to pest management that's less chemically dependent, such as using greenhouses, row covers, indoor farming, and improving soil health so the plants can create their own defenses, and defender insects, and poultry like ducks, chickens, and grouse/quai can live in neighboring bushes or co-planting. It may be more costly but at least it wouldn't sicken the soil and poison the water.
