My pleasure. Sorry the link did not work, but the article is easy to
find, as you know.
There are some hopeful developments in the field of "Beneficial (or
'Essential') Microorganisms."
I am a lay researcher of the work of Terao Higa, PhD., of University of
the Ryukyus (Okinawa). HIs two great books are Earth Saving Revolution
Vols. I and II.
These books changed my way of thinking, deeply.
I met the man once and he has a strong following in Japan and worldwide.
All hard science, careful empirical research, and FABULOUS results in the
field. Higa grew up farming and is, in every sense, a very down-to-earth
man. He travels worldwide promoting his farming methods.

Hello.
I couldn't make your link work so I googled the title, found the article,
read it and saved it.
Boy, it is a sad sad scary world that we live in.. The symptoms of
disaster are everywhere and one doesn't have to look hard because it just
hits one in the face. Destruction by the human is everywhere. It has
been going on for years, but the point is what can be done about it? Who
will listen? I hear time and again that one person can make a difference
and some people are moved and inspired to make a difference. Mother
Theresa is one of the most famous and glowing examples. But what about
the rest of us? What to do and where to begin.
I know of a young woman who is recently back from a few years working in
China. I've forgotten what she was doing in China. But her family had
no idea how terribly sick she has been over and over again from the
polluted rural living conditions she shared in China.. She has amazing
photographs of the people and the conditions in China. I could not do
it.
I do not know were the answers may lie.
Thank you very much for this article.

The problems of America's industrial agricultural system are profoundly
illustrated in
The Oil We Eat
www.eciad.ca/~elverumd/References/
The%20Oil%20We%20Eat%20by%20Richard%20Manning.pdf
I strongly recommend it.

<<The problem of over-fertilization is primarily associated with the
use of

destructive nature of chemical fertilizers on soil nutrient holding

exacerbate
their tendency to degrade ecosystems.
