[CGIAR] Ninety five percent of the world’s food comes from soil, so the future of the planet, and the people who live on it, depend on soil’s health. Not only is it responsible for sustaining life, but it also captures carbon, relieving pressure in the atmosphere created by greenhouse gas emissions. On this World Soil Day, which coincides with COP28, the global community recognizes the necessity of healthy soil in the fight against climate change.
