Dirt is Still Good: Is Digital Life Robbing Us of Development

Description:

Is digital living robbing us of physical & emotional development? The panel will show how getting dirty IRL is vital to our progress. Over 21 years, "Dirt Is Good" has revolutionised laundry via top-performing products & embracing dirt for human development. Real dirt beats the metaverse, gyms, artificial intimacy & sterile work and play. Our relationship with Arsenal FC & football epitomises our philosophy, fostering daily individual & social transformation; despite challenges like vanishing pitches, kids playing outdoors less than prison inmates, & escalating obesity rates.
