By adding rock dust and bio-char (charcoal) to the soil farmers and gardeners can help to reverse the global warming of this beautiful planet. There is an abundance of rock dust in quarries and gravel pits and in many mine tailings that could be used to amend the soil of land for producing food. Waste, including garbage and sewage could be transformed into charcoal for agricultural use and to create electricity.

Rock Dust an important addition to any soil
Rock dust is such an important addition to our soil that we must get the word out to all farmers and gardeners. There has been so much loss of our almost irreplaceable top soil that the nutrients supplied by rock dust must be added to decrease the onslaught of so many diseases and to restore the health of the population.When rock dust is added in sufficient amounts,the bacteria in our soil are able to extract and make available to the plants many of the nutrients that they are unable to take up when they are grown in a chemical environment.It is proven that the benefits are almost immediate that I am amazed that politicians have not got on the band-wagon and insisted on agriculture and horticulture discarding the chemicals and to grow food organically. Look at Cuba- the USA did them a favor when they stopped chemicals being exported.There is no truth to the argument that chemicals produce heavier crops. Organically grown food has so much more nutrients that more goodness is produced on less land--plus the fact that the chemically grown plants are so weak that they attract diseases and pests that need more expensive chemicals to keep the pests under control. If we do nothing then nothing will happen.Start with fellow gardeners, let them prove for themselves the truth--then work your way up from there!
