Why soil is one of the most amazing things on Earth

Soil is one the most underrated, and little-understood, wonders on our fragile planet. ar from being lifeless dirt, it’s estimated that in a single gram of soil, there could be as many as 50,000 species of microscopic organisms, or microorganisms. And in one teaspoon of soil, there are more microorganisms than there are people on the Earth. Watch this video from the Royal Society to learn how special soil is.
