Buried Underpants and Tea Bags Help Scientists Evaluate Soil
Swiss citizens are burying cotton underpants and tea bags in their gardens and fields to help
scientists assess the quality of soil in the Alpine nation.
1. Bury underpants and tea bags in your garden? Why not, thought scientist Marcel van der
Heijden of the University of Zurich. It may sound odd, but Swiss citizens are burying cotton
underwear and tea bags in their gardens, yards and fields to help researchers evaluate the quality
of soil in the Alpine nation. A joint venture of the University of Zurich and the Swiss federal
research institute Agroscope, “Proof By Underpants” is enlisting private gardeners, farmers and
other interested citizens, who bury cotton underpants throughout Switzerland, dig them up after
two months and photograph what is left. “The more degraded the underpants, the more active the
soil life and the healthier the soil,” according an online description of the project. “This
experiment will show whether the decomposition of cotton fabric by soil organisms is a suitable
indicator for soil life activity.”

2. Launched last year, the experiment comes against the backdrop of deteriorating soil quality in
many parts of the world due to erosion, construction, pesticides and drought. In mountainous
Switzerland, erosion is a particularly acute problem. “There are many issues linked to soil which
are very important for society,” van der Heijden said in an interview in his small office,
surrounded by folders, sheets and plants. “For instance, in Switzerland it is very hilly and
consequently there is a lot of erosion. It is important to have good soil structure to grow crops
and filter the water. Ninety-nine percent of our food production depends on soil.”

3. By enlisting citizens, researchers can cover the whole of Switzerland. The citizen science
project offers the advantage of informing participants of the state of their soil while providing the
scientists with data capturing variations across the country. Van der Heijden said the cheeky
approach of using underpants — What could be more common in households? — attracts
participants who might otherwise find the subject matter, well, just black and dirty, whereas soil
is CRITICAL for our survival.

4. Using high-tech equipment, scientists can examine soil to see if it is rich in nutrients and
bacteria. But it is time-consuming and expensive for them to collect samples across an entire
country. By enlisting citizens, the researchers extend their reach. “Everyone has a different way
of digging in their underpants, which leads to variation of the data, but without this huge

collaboration, the largest of its kind in Switzerland so far, we would never have been able to
measure the ground of the whole of Switzerland in a useful time,” van der Heijden said.

5. Cotton in underpants is biodegradable and made up of cellulose, which is devoured by
bacteria, fungi, insects, worms and other creatures in the soil. The more micro-organisms, the
quicker the slip disappears. Once the recommended type of tea — Lipton green tea or Rooibos, a
South African herbal tea — is buried 8 centimeters in the ground, it starts to decompose. The
more active the soil, the more the tea in the unused plastic tea bags DECAYS. Scientists are
using data from the Swiss experiment and elsewhere in the world to compile a Teabag Index and
draw a global soil map that can be used to improve global climate models.

Consider this situation.

Josh is a seventh grader who tried out for the basketball team. Josh has always loved watching basketball, but he never played on a team. This year, he really wants to be in a school activity, so he tried out for the basketball team. Tryouts were a week long. As the week went on, Josh began hearing more and more jokes at practice.
