To significantly mitigate the climate crisis, humans need to solve a lot of problems. As this 2020 Netflix documentary suggests, one of the biggest problems is right under our feet: the soil. By regenerating the world’s soils, Kiss the Ground reveals that we can completely and rapidly stabilize Earth’s climate, restore lost ecosystems, and create abundant food supplies. Using compelling graphics and visuals, along with striking NASA and NOAA footage, the film artfully illustrates how, by drawing down atmospheric carbon, soil is the missing piece of the climate puzzle. Narrated by actor Woody Harrelson and featuring science experts and celebrity activists, the film explains why transitioning to “regenerative agriculture” has the potential to balance our climate, replenish our vast water supplies, and feed the world.
