\nIngham is well known for her work on the USDA soil-primer based on a concept she coined called the \u201cSoil Food Web.\u201d \u00a0Now, based on her decades of pioneering work as a soil microbiologist – Ingham has made it the objective of her company SoilFoodWeb.com<\/a> to restore soil to its optimum state, anywhere at any scale.

What most may not know is about her efforts that saved humanity and all living planets on this planet. \u00a0You see…<\/p>\n

.<\/em><\/span><\/div>\n
“In 1992 the Environmental Protection Agency was only a few weeks away from ending life on the planet as we know it,” so writes George Lawton in the April, 2001 issue of Acres USA (“A Voice For Eco-Agriculture”). \u00a0<\/em>Lawton reports that the EPA, although only having done limited tests at that time on a variety of genetically engineered microbes, all of which had been approved for release into the atmosphere, were prepared to approve the release of a GE variant of Klepsiella planticola (KP), one of the most common bacteria on the planet.<\/em><\/div>\n
\u00a0.<\/span><\/div>\n
“This particular variety of GE KP,” he writes, “had the unique ability to convert dead plant matter into alcohol. It was hoped that this would provide a way for farmers to transform their unused stalks, leaves and other types of compost material into alcohol, which could be used for washing, running vehicles. “<\/em><\/div>\n
.<\/span><\/div>\n
So, it’s worth giving a listen to our discussion to learn more about Elaine’s focus, her interests, and her scope on a stable and prosperous future from the ground up.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
