Abstract
I believe that teaching about ground conditions, like soils and sediments, and what this means for nature and us as humans, is one of the most important things we can do. But it is a big challenge, because what I see being convinced and dedicated as an extraordinary interaction between minerals, organics, water and organisms, is what some would call “dirt” and the students don’t always see the amazing thing. How can sand and gravel be cool? Is clay beautiful? Isn’t humus just dirty?
