21. Oh goody, strip-mining the soil to a whole new level

We remove the grain, and feed it to people and livestock.

We remove the stalks and leaves, and feed it to our cars.

We then try to replace the billions of tons of organic matter that is vital to healthy soil, that we strip-mined from the land, with synthetic fertilizers made from oil and natural gas.

Only someone with no understanding whatsoever of how to maintain healthy soils would call crop residue worthless, as this article did.

This will not end well for us.
