The Event


Soil is an essential part of the Earth’s ability to feed the world's population and it is key to climate stability. On March 12, Jo Handelsman, Director of the Wisconsin Institute for Discovery, will discuss her new book published by Yale University Press, A World Without Soil


Professor Handelsman will share her motivation for writing the book after serving in the Obama Administration, and discuss the features of this precious and rapidly disappearing resource, what we can do to save it, and the consequences if we don’t. After Professor Handelsman's talk, Yan Shi, a pioneer in organic farming in China, will share her insights from building orgranic farming communities in China and comment on the book's relevance to China's agricultural development. 



土壤供养着整个地球上的人类,也是气候稳定的关键因素。3月12日,耶鲁大学出版社出版的新书《没有土壤的世界》作者,威斯康星发现研究所主任、美国前总统奥巴马的科学顾问Jo Handelsman受邀在线分享她在离开奥巴马政府后撰写此书的原因,并讨论土壤这一珍贵而迅速流失的资源的特点,以及我们可以采取哪些行动来拯救土壤和不这样做的后果。在Handelsman教授的分享之后,我们也荣幸地邀请到中国有机农业的引领人物之一、分享收获(北京)农业发展有限公司执行董事石嫣女士加入到这场讨论中,谈谈她在中国建立有机农业社区的经历和经验,并对Handelsman教授的新书与中国农业发展的相关性进行点评。
