Conscientious Projector film series presents the documentary "The Need to GROW."  Scientists have predicted that humanity has just 60 years to prevent Earth’s life-giving layer of topsoil from becoming entirely and irrevocably depleted. One third has already been lost. 

This Earth Conscious Life production calls on an array of expert witnesses in its examination of the alarming trend, and follows heartening stories of a renegade urban farmer, an activist child, and a visionary inventor revolutionizing soil restoration as they devote their lives to rescuing our planet’s capacity to grow food.

A community discussion follows the film.
