It's under our feet and under our fingernails, but what is it? And how did it get there? Inspired by William Bryant Logan's acclaimed book Dirt: The Ecstatic Skin of the Earth, find out how industrial farming, mining and urban development have led us toward cataclysmic droughts, starvation, floods and climate change. Dirt is a part of everything we eat, drink and breathe which is why we should stop treating it like, well, dirt.

Truth about dirt

By Dirtlover

from Anchorage, Ak

Comments about PBS Independent Lens: Dirt! The Movie DVD:

Great way to show young people about soil and its importance. Even would be better if all adults were forced to watch the video for the sake of their off springs future.

What have we done to our sacred DIRT?

By Nana

from Colorado Springs, CO

Comments about PBS Independent Lens: Dirt! The Movie DVD:

It should be required viewing for all members of congress and employees of the Department of Agriculture and a copy should be sent to each employee of Monsanto, Archer-Daniels-Midland Co.,
Syngenta and Cargill.
We should be outraged and ready to remedy the damage that corporate agriculture has and continues do to the earth and our food systems.

Should be shown to every school child.

Comments about PBS Independent Lens: Dirt! The Movie DVD:

This book and DVD should be required reading and viewing by all school children as most have NO idea where their food comes from. Humans are killing the soil with chemicals and modern farming methods. Farmers need to know what is in this book and DVD!

Comments about PBS Independent Lens: Dirt! The Movie DVD:

A moving, brilliant film - beautifully put together in every aspect. The metaphor of the Humming Bird may be one of the best tools for getting people to re-think their degree of involvement in the crucial sphere of saving our species, and all others as well!
