It’s my work but it’s also all my passions - soil diversity, urban forestry, rain water management and the connection with the natural cycles and connection with everything that feeds the soul and gives you a joy of life.” (Johanna) “To me, a city is a landscape.” (Johanna) “It’s not muck-away, this is one of the most important, critical infrastructures of the planet and we talk about muck-away. It comes from ignorance, it comes from a mis-understanding or nobody pointed it out in the first place.” (Johanna) “There is a disconnect with nature and the most fundamental aspect of terrestrial life on earth… is soil.” (Johanna) “A handful of soil has more microbes than there are people on this earth.” (Johanna) “We do like digging holes. Because when you dig a hole you reveal all sorts of secret horizons, a layer cake of human endeavour, of natural cycles, it depends if it’s urban, brownfield, greenfield… and therein lies the story.” (Johanna) “The whole re-cycling energy is to do with the soil and not touching it… letting it repair itself.” (Johanna) “Nature is resilient if we would let it be.” (Johanna) “Composting… because it is (soil) like black gold. You take your good quality waste, you put it into a hot rotter (?) and it comes back as soil. It is quite a magical thing.” (Johanna)  “Despite all our best endeavours… we rely on six inches of soil and the fact that it rains.” (Johanna) Social Media Johanna Gibbons Web:  www.jlg-london.com Instagram: @jlg_london David Pearl (Host) Twitter @DavidPearlHere Instagram @davidpearl_here Website www.davidpearl.net Andrew Paine (Producer &amp; Audio Engineer) Twitter @ItPainesMe
