Fwd: Why we need a National Living Soil Repository

[Seth Itzkan]

This looks like a good paper.

I appreciate the sentiment, of course, but it also still falls into the "scarcity paradigm," i.e., we need a registry because soil is a scare resource that is dwindling and needs to be protected. The alternative perspective says soil is a quickly renewable resource and we should be striving toward abundance.
