About The Film/电影简介

A revolutionary group of activists, scientists, farmers, and politicians band together in a global movement of "Regenerative Agriculture" that could balance our climate, replenish our vast water supplies, and feed the world. 

-IMDB

大地之吻，探索了第一个可行的，低成本的方式来扭转气候变化通过（鼓卷）。。。土壤。如果处理得当，土壤（亦称“泥土”）有可能将人类排放到大气中的大部分二氧化碳封存起来。只有一个问题：我们现代的、工业化的、以单作物为基础的农业正在杀死土壤中的微生物，而这些微生物是进行碳封存的（“生物测定”）。但还有希望。一个由科学家、农民、牧场主、活动家和政府机构组成的激进组织正联合起来，在全球范围内开展一场新型农业运动，称之为“再生农业”，这种农业可以增加土壤寿命、储存水和封存二氧化碳。这些人来自不同的背景，但他们有一个共同的承诺——在太迟之前治愈世界的土壤。大地之吻是一个强大的解决人类最大挑战之一的故事。

Guest Speaker/特邀嘉宾

Meet Patrick Nijs, a former ambassador of Belgium to China. Patrick has had an extraordinary diplomatic career, being an Honorary Ambassador and Global facilitator, as well as the co-founder of European Union-China Joint Innovation Center in Beijing. In 2012, Patrick decided to retire in his wife’s hometown of Dongchuan, Yunnan, where they live in a captivating 2-story farmhouse surrounded by fertile Yunnan lands.

Patrick has had a strong connection with nature and believes that humans are “not above nature, but part of it.” With this in mind Patrick and his wife Deng Minyan, started to explore permaculture – a sustainable way of agriculture. Patrick believes that co-operating with nature is the best way to live in harmony, and practices farming techniques that do not involve ploughing and damaging the soil or the use of harmful and toxic chemical fertilizers and insect repellants.

Through his fondness of nature and strong urge to make a difference, Kabissa was born – a sustainable agricultural farm. Kabissa is surrounded by an old pine forest and rich Yunnan biodiversity. Kabissa is filled with luscious plants, roses, crops, fresh fruit, honey, fragrant herbs and much more. Through Kabissa and permaculture practices, Patrick is inspired to help the local community and like-minded people, to adopt an organic way of farming. He wishes to eventually sell his organic products and introduce training programs for people who want to learn more about permaculture farming.

认识我们本期嘉宾前比利时驻华大使帕特里克·奈斯!

帕特里克（以下称奈斯）有着非凡的外交生涯。他是终生荣誉大使和"全球协作者“，也是欧洲联盟中国联合创新中心的联合发起人。2012年，奈斯先生决定退休回到他妻子的家乡云南东川。他们住在一个两层的"农舍”，周围是云南肥沃的土地。

奈斯同自然有一种深深的连结。并坚定的相信“人类不是凌驾于自然之上，而是属于自然的一部分" 。带着这样的信念，奈斯和他的妻子邓旻燕开始探索一种可持续的农耕方式, 朴门永续(永续农业)。他认为，与自然合作是通往和谐幸福的最佳途径。并且采用免耕和不损害土壤的农业技术，不使用有害有毒的化学农药和杀虫剂。

在对自然的热爱和强烈做出改变的愿望下，卡比杉诞生了，它是一个可持续发展的农场。(卡比杉是非洲话，类似中国的‘好的，好的’。因为奈斯在非洲长大，他希望农场能像小时候见到的那种样子，有森林……）卡比杉周围是一片古老的松树林，拥有着丰富的云南生物多样性的特征。卡比杉内拥有极为丰富的植物，玫瑰花，庄稼，新鲜的水果，蜂蜜，芳香的草药等等。在卡比杉农场进行永续农业的实践中，奈斯先生受到启发，致力于帮助当地社区和志同道合的人采用有机耕耘方式。他希望最终把有机产品推广到市场，并引进相关培训项目，为想学习永续农业的人提供此服务。
