Short filmTranscript
00:00 Six inches of soil feeds eight billion people.
00:05 We already grow enough of all the human essential nutrients to feed everyone who's alive.
00:12 Farming is the single biggest cause of biodiversity collapse,
00:16 the second biggest cause of climate change.
00:20 Soil is the most valuable resource on the planet,
00:23 and we're degrading it without even realising.
00:27 We have come to believe that money is more important than soil.
00:32 That idea has to change.
00:37 Regenerative agriculture is farming, that we're producing food,
00:42 but also farming in harmony with nature.
00:44 You're working with nature, not against it.
00:46 The more people see it, the more that they realise that it works.
00:52 Having a regenerative agro-ecological system, that is surely a solution.
00:57 Soils are absolutely phenomenal in the amount of carbon they can store.
01:04 What we absolutely need now is urgent action from the government.
01:10 Until you deal with nine retailers who have 94.5% of food sales in Britain,
01:16 you're not going to have a level playing field.
01:20 Consumers have a choice.
01:22 They can decide to buy cheap meat from industrial farms,
01:26 or they can find farmers that really value animal welfare
01:30 and the environment that we're farming in.
01:33 Dad started RegenFarming for the future generations to come,
01:36 and that was the most selfless act he could have done.
01:39 The people who are doing this are making big sacrifices.
01:43 I think the potential is absolutely huge here.
01:47 These farms really can change the world.
01:49 It's all about the soil, isn't it really?
01:55 Yeah, definitely.
01:57 Yeah, definitely.
