We might imagine soil as endless and indestructible: it is neither. Only about 7.5 percent of the earth’s surface provides the soil we rely on for agriculture, and it is remarkably fragile, disappearing ten times faster than it is being replaced.

Soil erosion has accelerated since the industrial revolution, and we’re now entering a period when the ability of soil, “the living epidermis of the planet,” to support the growth of our food supply is plateauing. FixClimateChange

Agriculture’s physical disruption of soil releases stored carbon into the atmosphere. Based on the area of land used for farming worldwide, 50 to 70 gigatons of carbon has been released into the atmosphere throughout human history.

Soil extinction is not just an environmental issue, it is an existential issue. It should be looked at separately from the rest of the environmental issues.

A 2018 inventory from the U.S. Department of Agriculture reports that the U.S. loses soil on average 10 times faster than it is generated; in states such as Iowa, New Mexico, and Nevada, erosion is much more rapid. FixClimateChange

The theme of Earth Day this year will be: Plastic! It is good to remember that the most significant action for those who wish to contribute to the environment is: reducing the use of plastic.
