Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence. There& #39;s no reason to exaggerate an anecdote. Just replicate and measure it for its truthfulness.
Which brings me to the thread on my initial thoughts of the new #KissTheGroundMovie now on Netflix. They claim soil is a:

I don& #39;t know how one can spend 7 years on a project like this and not be shown the science that there& #39;s measurable limits to carbon that can be sequestered in soils, and it& #39;s easily reversible, especially in pastureland:

But holistic grazing leader Allan Savory makes many appearances with the usual "grazing reverses desertification/climate change" claims, failing to mention grazing is also the major driver of deforestation & topsoil loss globally.
Savory said: "the urine and the hooves of the animals are what causes grass to grow.”
He& #39;s a great speaker, but it& #39;s as likely the BS coming out of his mouth caused the grass to grow.
His work is based on a strange type of faith, not science:

A major way to avoid losing organic matter in soil is avoiding deforestation, draining wetlands, or damaging peat soils:

With the biodiversity claims, we need to ask, "compared to what?"
Restored/protected forests or rewilded grasslands would be far better than even the best pastureland.
Many anthropocentric, colonial, and whitewashing points at play in the documentary. https://twitter.com/NicholasDCarter/status/1217862623179485186?s=19">https://twitter.com/NicholasD...

And then there& #39;s the false dichotomies & fear mongering:
& #39;Poisons used during holocaust = pesticides & synthetic fertilizers today = your baby is being breastfed poison.& #39;
I& #39;ve written alot about organic, stock free, farming. It& #39;s best served with science: https://awellfedworld.org/issues/climate-issues/farming-for-climate/">https://awellfedworld.org/issues/cl...

We don& #39;t need "regenerative" meat over collective shifts to plant-based.
More to say but will share the podcast I did with @Plant_proof when it& #39;s live and post credible evidence of EVERYTHING I say. https://twitter.com/NicholasDCarter/status/1283046723900907521?s=19">https://twitter.com/NicholasD...
