Just in case you haven’t signed up for the Food Summit going on this week, you might want to view the presentation by Leslie Parsons on soil remediation with plants.  She explores how very toxic our soil is and what we can do about it….instead of wringing our hands or moving and making it someone else’s poison.

I have a big problem with one aspect that Leslie talks about — using plants to soak up the metals, and then selling it back to be used again.  Hello?  What’s wrong with this picture?

Here is the link to the Summit.
