Thanks for watching! Did you know that a 2016 study showed that its participants remember pictures of animals better than they remember pictures of plants? What is plant blindness (and are you suffering from it)? 👉 kzread.info/dash/bejne/qIF3pKVrfM62oKg.html

Is it okay if we dubbed this video in Bulgarian and shared it for a local movement?

On this World Soil Day (Dec 5th, 2023), I am thrilled to stumble upon this gem of a video. I was a bit taken aback by FAO disabling comments on their video of the day. I am glad I can express here my utmost appreciation of the gift we have as Earthlings to have a planet that has soil, something no other celestial body has (as far we have discovered so far). Let's protect our precious, food-giving resource. It's easy, we just need commitment to do this!
More information in just 4 min. Than my whole semester.

Couldn't agree more! More brilliant content from the BBC. It's such a shame when people criticise one of the best institutions in the UK/world.

Totally agree
I didn't know South Africa has the oldest soil in the world! Soil is underappreciated indeed, it's important for agriculture, buildings, even purifying water.

What's different between soil and silicon
great animation and story. I wish it could be doubled to other languages (people are not too fond of reading while watching, specially your hypnotic animation). Thanks to the team that made this animation possible. :)

I’m getting the impression that soil isn’t the same as dirt.
And more creatures roaming on land makes better soil and therefore plant food. Regenerative agriculture is the way forward!
Ah, er ... "soil" is "earth". So soil is one of the most amazing things on soil. And earth is one of the most amazing things on earth.
Plants a lot of trees 🌱🌳🌳🌳. Create fertil soil🌱and maintain fertility soil 🌱 . Is time for planting trees🌱🌳to save our planet 🌱🌳🌍🌳🌏🌳🌎🌳🌿🍃🌱🌳🌳🌳🌳🌳🌳🌳🌳🌳🌳🌳🌳🌳🌳🌳🌳🌳🌳🌳🌳🌳🌳🌳🌳🌳🌳🌳

I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish. (Luke 13:5) Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat: Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it. (Matthew 7:13-14) And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire. (Revelation of John 20:15)
