Soil is a climate champion, storing more carbon than the atmosphere and all plant life combined. Healthy soils help fight climate change by trapping carbon dioxide.
Nutrient Recycling
Think of soil as nature’s recycler. It breaks down dead plants and animals, turning them into nutrients that fuel new plant growth and keep ecosystems thriving.

Soil takes its time. It can take hundreds to thousands of years to form just a few centimeters. This slow process makes soil conservation crucial for our planet's future.
The Crisis Beneath Our Feet
Every single day, our planet loses approximately 98.6 million tons of precious soil due to erosion. This staggering loss totals around 36 billion tons annually. With 40% of agricultural soils globally degraded Africa is hit hardest, with 46% of its land degraded, impacting millions and costing billions annually. These consequences are severe, affecting food security, water resources, and climate change mitigation.
