Just imagine a world without soil. You must be thinking what rubbish I am speaking but believe me if the soil is not preserved, there would be no fertile soil for growing crops.
Today the main problems that the soil face are soil
erosion and soil contamination. Deforestation
is the main cause of soil erosion and the improper disposal of waste,
industrial activities, acid rain and agriculture chemicals are the causes of
soil pollution.
The harmful emissions of industries cause acid rain
which in turn causes soil pollution.
We have to preserve soil and I think that
afforestation is the best method to do so. Trees bind the soil and hence reduce
soil erosion.
v By
planting trees.
v By
using limited amount of fertilizers in agriculture activities.
v By
proper disposal of wastes. I think it
would be easier for the corporations to manage waste if we dispose it in a
particular manner. The biodegradable wastes should be collected apart from
non-biodegradable wastes. Every house should have different dustbins for these
wastes.
v By
reducing the air pollution caused by industries.
We should make people aware of soil problems, its
causes and solutions.
