European Soil Scientists Unite To Tackle Threats to Soil
The world’s soils face a wide range of threats that could undermine the very basis to our current way of life. In recognition of the pressing importance of threats to soils the United Nations has designated 2015 as the ‘International Year of Soils’ to bring to public attention the wide variety of threats to soil. This year is being launched on World Soil Day on the 5th of December 2014.
