Dear wonderful Sofia, if the whole world had as sensitive a heart as you have, and the commitment and diligence with which you have worked to make these 1160 pieces of work, this world would be a different place. But that's exactly what we want to do. We want to make this world life-friendly, not against life. Be my partner and let us take this ahead. Much Love and Blessings. -Sg #SaveSoil @cpsavesoil
Soils are a complex system which involve biotic and abiotic elements, such as nutrients, minerals, organic matter and living organisms. It is one of the main reservoirs of biodiversity on the planet.

Soil diversity plays a big role in purifying water that seeps into soil. Contaminants are absorbed by soil particles, making the water both clean and safe. The more biodiversity in soil, the better the purification. (European Union, 2010)

Gut health hinges on soil's organic content and microbial diversity. A rich soil microbiome fosters nutrient-dense crops, influencing human well-being through interconnected ecosystems.

The average mineral content of calcium, magnesium, and iron in cabbage, lettuce, tomatoes, and spinach has dropped 80-90% between 1914 and 2018 in the US. (Nutrients, 2018)

A University of Texas study on nutrients in fruits and vegetables in USA found declines in the amount of protein, calcium, phosphorus, iron, riboflavin (vitamin B2) and vitamin C over the past half century due to soil depletion.

Agricultural investments of at least USD 30 billion per year are needed now to feed a globally growing population. Without sustainable land management, that figure is expected to increase.

Sowing Seeds of Impact at #COP28!
As highlighted in @Indigoagโs blog post, soil and agriculture have taken center stage on the global climate platform. We genuinely appreciate the opportunities afforded by COP28 to foster new connections and collaborations, paving the way for a future where every seed yields prosperity for both farmers and the planet.

Making the shift to regenerative agriculture is crucial, but faces financial risks that stifle progress. This COP28 panel at the Save Soil Pavilion brought together experts in sustainable finance to discuss pioneering investment models that support healthy soils while mitigating risks.
Can blended financing and public-private partnerships provide the missing piece? By exploring innovative solutions that bridge the gap between economic security and ecological sustainability, we just might be able to #SaveSoil.

If we want to fix climate change, we have to save soil.
By revitalizing soil, we can mitigate up to one third of global warming by reducing greenhouse gas emissions (based on a 2023 FAO report), with the only side effect being a richer, healthier soil.
