This article explains in greater detail the benefits of promoting and practicing healthy soil #worldsoilday https://navdanyainternational.org/soil-seed-and-life-world-soil-day-2025/#

#WorldSoilDay We call you dirt Each clod a world. Mineral particles, scattered islands. Mites crawl stately through fungal forests, winding rivers of roots. We call you dirt. Leeched of richness, you pour like sand between our heedless fingers.

Happy World Soils Day!!

To me every day is soils day, but globally we mark 5th December as a day to focus attention on the importance of healthy soil and to advocate for soil sustainability.

Please take a moment to think about your local patch of soil - whether it's your garden, a local park or even a nearby forest. Is the soil is being looked after well there? If not, what can you do to protect it for future generations?

As it’s World Soil Day here’s a link to Vidacycle UK’s website which has lots of useful information on various soil tests we can do to assess the condition and health of our soils.

#WorldSoilDay reminds us that soil is living ground that feeds food, water, climate and biodiversity; #regeneration starts when we put care, diversity and farmers’ knowledge at the centre

#WorldSoilDay is also a call to support those who regenerate soils every day, protecting seeds, food and ecosystems for the future

Happy #WorldSoilDay 2025!

The #SoilPlastic #CitizenScience App of the MINAGRIS Project, running on the SPOTTERON Platform, enables everyone to document plastic pollution - to help researchers to identify where and which plastic is threatening the soil – and how we can protect it.

It's World Soil Day!

Happy World Soil Day! In honour of the occasion, here’s a flashback to a speech I gave earlier this fall on the need for Canada to have a national soil health strategy. https://youtu.be/cwTJOKQcwW8 #WorldSoilDay #Soil #UnitedNations #cdnpoli #Canada #SenateofCanada

It is #WorldSoilDay!

Globally, 15-36% of #soils are degraded (UNCCD, FAO, IPCC and others).

The #trend is still rising📈 and not in line with the #UN goal to “halt and reverse #LandDegradation” and, by 2030, to “achieve a land degradation-neutral world” (#SDG15).⛔

D’ici 2050, les 2/3 de la population mondiale devraient vivre dans des villes.

Les sols des zones rurales restent essentiels pour nourrir les populations urbaines, assurer la subsistance des agriculteurs et renforcer la sécurité alimentaire mondiale.

⛰️ Der »Archivboden« wurde am #WorldSoilDay zum #BodendesJahres2026 ernannt.

🏺 Böden bewahren als #Boden-Denkmale über tausende Jahre hinweg Spuren unserer Vergangenheit. Sie sind ein stilles Gedächtnis der Landschaft, das zeigt, wie eng Natur- und Kulturgeschichte miteinander verbunden sind.

🌳 Am Bodenlehrfpad »Stadtwald Ehrenfriedersdorf« zeigt die 8. Station wie ein #Archivboden aussehen kann: wallartige Aufschüttungen von Gesteinsmaterial.

Among the 'disadvantages' cited in this article on regenerative agriculture is that farmers that practice no-till often double down on the use of herbicides... also that they would need to acquire new skills to practice it, which I personally see as an all round positive. #worldsoilday #soilerosion

#TopicOfTheDay: #Soil #Erosion is the natural or accelerated process of detachment and movement of the top layer of soil by erosive agents, primarily wind and water.

This process is greatly exacerbated by human activities like deforestation and unsustainable farming, leading to a significant loss of fertile topsoil, reduced agricultural productivity, and the pollution of waterways .

We celebrate #WorldSoilDay (WSD) annually on 5 December to raise global awareness about the role soils play in agricultural development, #ecosystem functions and food security.

Endorsed by the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) and the United Nations (UN) General Assembly, WSD became an official international day in 2014.

It's #worldsoilday. I only realised because 11 years ago today I seemed to be quite busy doing advocacy on caring for the soil. Nobody talking about it anymore?

Of course I am still doing advocacy, here are some links, to material in Dutch, from the latest issue of the newsletter. #soil #horticulture #sustainability

¡Feliz Día Mundial del Suelo! Todos los años celebramos el #WorldSoilDay el Dic-5 porque el suelo es vida. Nos proporciona el sostén de plantas y biodiversidad, es parte del ciclo del agua y del carbono, y fuente de agua, nutrientes y soporte de cultivos.
