   COMMON GROUND DOCUMENTARY EXPOSES THE TOXIC INTERCONNECTIONS OF AMERICAN FARMING POLICY, POLITICS, AND HEALTH

   EcoRadio KC is glad to encourage awareness and protection of our world.  Our goal is to ensure our listeners are aware of how we can create a sustainable present for a sustainable future! We experience more extreme temperatures because of global energy increase. As we move to the future, it will take ALL of us to make the world habitable for millennia to come. You can trust that KKFI will strive to broadcast relevant, accurate, and timely information. You share KKFI’s mission of providing an independent voice to information underserved or ignored by mainstream media. From the filmmakers of “Kiss the Ground” there is a follow-up “Common Ground”, recipient of 30+ awards. Learn more at https://commongroundfilm.org/ (https://commongroundfilm.org/) Sobering yet hopeful, ‘Common Ground’ exposes the toxic interconnections of American farming policy, politics, and health destruction and healing across the United States and beyond, and how regenerative agriculture and soil health plays a vitally important role in changing these systems for the better. At its root, it explores how people from different walks of life, different political backgrounds, and different places share one thing in common – the very soil beneath their feet. The film is directed by Josh and Rebecca Tickell (Big Picture Ranch), who have created bold and inspiring environmental films (Kiss the Ground, On Sacred Ground, Regenerate Ojai, Fuel, The Big Fix), while winning coveted awards along the way from Sundance, Cannes, Red Nation, and Tribeca. We can all find our common ground to heal the soil, our food systems, our health, and the planet. No action is too small, and every acre counts. From urban gardens to large ranches, composting to food production, ecological restoration projects to curriculum in the classroom and in the fields, we can do this if we work together. EcoRadio KC supports the work for a future in which humans flourish as members of a thriving ecosphere. We are all in this together and it will take all of us to make the world safe. This will be a great radio hour! “The whole world is one neighborhood.”  Franklin D. Roosevelt
