Nature itself has already saved humanity from a climate cataclysm, @ConservationOrg research finds. Without Earth’s complex web of terrestrial and marine ecosystems—known as the biosphere—we would already be seeing far more severe climate impacts. conservation.org/blog/study-…

Healthy soils are the foundation of the food system.

Our soils are the basis for agriculture and the medium in which nearly all food-producing plants grow. Healthy soils produce healthy crops that in turn nourish people and animals.
