Hello, fellow do-goaters and friends.

I'm your host, Karina Belizzi.

Every week, I invite you to care more so we can create a better world together.

Over the past few weeks, we focused on the topic of regenerative agriculture, of food

procurement, and of their inexorable connection to climate health.

This week, we deepen our discussion as we dive deep into

soil health. My partner for this discussion is the executive producer of the documentary film,

Kiss the Ground, John Rulak. If you haven't seen that movie yet, I recommend you hit pause,

go watch it, and come right back here to this episode.

It's available to all Netflix subscribers and everyone else can rent it for $1 on Vimeo.

You can just go to kissthegroundmovie.com and it will link you everywhere you want to go.

I'll include links to both in show notes so you can motor right over

to the spot of your choice and watch the film. Kiss the Ground is narrated by Woody Harrelson

and features Giselle and Tom Brady and even a few guests of this show, Paul Hawken included.

While I recorded this episode months ago for the Nutrition

Without Compromise podcast, it just felt right to share it here now, and specifically before

my one-on-one with Carlo Mandavi of Monarch Tractor. The reason is simple. This episode, this

deep dive with John Rulak, it will help you understand the

connection between organic and regenerative farming, agroforestry, and ultimately understand

how critical soil health is to our future. So without further ado, here is John Ruleck, executive producer of Kiss the Ground.

We could shift how we grow food in a regenerative matter and return that instead of emitter of carbon and greenhouse gas emissions and all the potential problems with fertilizers.

We could be part of the solution through soil health.
