While I agree with the intentions of the environmental movement, I think our generation's fear of climate change is overly pessimistic and lacks positive foresight.

I was curious about how our bodies—or parts of them, like nails—contribute to the soil’s microbiome. This is especially relevant in the modern age, where we generally spend our lives indoors and away from nature. But, humans still affect the earth’s soil in critical ways, including after we die.
