Opinion: Save soil – Fix climate change
India TodayIf you look at the way life happens on this planet, the microbial life in the soil is the foundation for all other life. In normal agricultural soil, the minimum organic matter should be between 3–6 per cent, but in several parts of the world, it is well below 1 per cent. Right now, the Conscious Planet – Save Soil movement is aiming to bring about a global policy that there must be a minimum of 3–6 per cent organic matter in agricultural land. As part of the movement, in 2022, I embarked on a lone motorcycle journey from London to southern India, covering 30,000 km in 100 days, to raise awareness and urge governments to implement soil policies. Since March 2022, we have reached over 4 billion people, making Save Soil the world’s largest people’s movement.
