Independent Lens | DIRT! THE MOVIE | Trailer | PBS

http://www.pbs.org/independentlens/dirt-the-movie/ It's under our feet and under our fingernails, but what is it? And how did it get there? Inspired by William Bryant Logan's acclaimed book "Dirt: The Ecstatic Skin of the Earth," find out how industrial farming, mining and urban development have led us toward cataclysmic droughts, starvation, floods and climate change. Dirt is a part of everything we eat, drink and breathe. Which is why we should stop treating it like, well dirt.

DIRT! THE MOVIE has an encore broadcast Dec. 7, 2010 on Independent Lens, a weekly series airing on PBS. Presented by ITVS, Independent Lens is broadcast on PBS stations nationwide. http://www.pbs.org/independentlens/dirt-the-movie/
