Humn activities often pay less attention to soil management with large focus centered on food production and improvement. The soil world day celebrated on 5th of Decemebr annually/world-wide is here to remind us that soil has been neglected for so long and calls for a connection of soil with food, water, climate change, life and biodiversity.
In addition to soil world day celebration. The food and Agriculture Organisation (FAO) has given a theme "SOIL A SOLID GROUND FOR LIFE" to raise awareness of the critical importance of human, animal and ecosystem lives in relation to soil and its management. Most countries celebrates soil world day by organising seminars, conventions and conference where issues relating to soil improvement and management are discussed and promoted. Individuals can do more by engaging in sustainable activities to protect soil as well food security, biodiversity management and climate change mitigation.
