Eve, The Earthworm

Video of the day.  The Pesticides Control Board, Belize has released an animated video called Eve, the Earthworm. If you want to know more about earthworms, this short video is worth a watch. Amiel Topsey animated the 3 minute video.

 

'There are many types of earthworms, and they all have the unique role of maintaining a healthy environment. Earthworms are biologically designed to break down organic material and release the nutrients back into the soil, their movement loosens and oxygenates the ground, and they're also indicators of soil quality.

Due to the remarkable importance of the Earthworm as bioindicators, the Pesticides Control Board #Belize, partnered up with a local animator to create a short educational video to express the earthworm's importance in visual form."
