While it is easy to believe that one year is too brief a duration for irrevocable soil damage to occur, the reality paints an entirely different picture. Close to 24 billion tons of soil is washed or carried away due to destructively intensive agriculture every year.
Spreading the soil message is a pressing priority. All it takes is two minutes of your time to make yourself heard. Write to your leaders now!

The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations launched the GIAHS (Globally Important Agriculture Heritage Systems) initiative in 2002. It seeks to identify, conserve, and manage the world's best agricultural biodiversity knowledge systems, food and livelihood security, and cultures.
Koraput in Orissa is one such heritage system recognized for its rich traditional knowledge, keeping the region largely untouched by destructive modern agricultural practices. From remarkable water management to ingenious techniques that conserve genetic diversity, Koraput is a case study worth adopting.
Like these heritage sites, our entire planet has the potential to flourish. Mother nature has her way of resetting biodiversity, provided we bring in the correct measures to #SaveSoil. It is time to urge your leaders to enact soil-friendly policies that will act as a stepping stone in regenerating the soil.
Your voice is your strength. Write to your leaders at savesoil.org/write. Action Now.
