Description

Back by popular demand, OSU’s James Cassidy returns to reveal how soil gives our lives meaning. In this engaging talk, Cassidy—senior instructor in crop and soil science—breaks down what soil is, how it forms, and why it’s essential to life itself. Learn how soil stores water and nutrients, supports ecosystems, and sustains our survival. You’ll leave with a deeper appreciation for the ground beneath your feet—and the fundamentals that, as Cassidy says, “all humans on planet Earth should know.”
