"Our urban experience is just as much biologically determined as it is socio-culturally determined. Soil is a living sponge that filters our water and air. It is a decomposition engine and support network for all living things. Soil allows for the stability of our constructions; the resilience of flooding and drought, and the health of our food, water and air. It is manipulated, engineered, cultivated and remediated by engineers, agronomists, biologists, farmers, and activists."
