Journey through a mouldering land – Reise durch ein zerfallendes Land

Journey through a mouldering land – Reise durch ein zerfallendes Land

An important ressource rarely taken into account, often disdained and most of the time “tramped on” without bothering much is soil! But that is the surface of this planet, generating life and nutrients as well as keeping everything a-live. Desertification – the ongoing spreading of deserts – and erosion are devastating enormous amounts of soil every year, making a lot of land worthless for every kind of agriculture. And soil is hardly sustainable. If it´s lost, it´s gonna stay that way! Renaturation is fairly difficult and in most cases just impossible.
