If you read one thing today, make it @doctorpallavi's piece on Soil Extinction on #BJGPLife ⬇️
bjgplife.com/soil-extinctio…

🔸 87% of organisms depend on soil for their survival

🔸>50% of soil in the world today is below 3% organic material, the level needed to sustain plant growth

@doctorpallavi 🔸 52% of agricultural land is already degraded

🔸 90% of soil is predicted to be lost or become of extremely poor quality by 2050

🔸 If current rates of soil degradation continue, ALL of the world's top soil could be gone within 60 years

@rwritextinction You need to look deeper into this. In the past few days @ConvocaPe @pulitzercenter published a joint global investigation into the @RSPOtweets it is absolutely NOT effective in stopping #deforestation or handling #humanrights complaints - it fails. pulitzercenter.org/stories/rspo-o…

@rwritextinction @ConvocaPe @pulitzercenter @RSPOtweets A June report by @GRAIN_org @FOEInt @bmfonds @Global_Witness and many other NGOs throughout the world strongly recommended the @EU_Commission DOES NOT use certification as a protective mechanism in the #EU anti-deforestation regulation - it does not work. en.milieudefensie.nl/news/10-reason…

Raja : Festival of Soil (a thread)

In Odisha we've the tradition of celebrating three days of festivities dedicated to Soil. Probably no other region practices something like this.
The mass festival of Raja starts a day before Mithuna Shankranti, called Pahili (first) Raja.

1/n

The preparation for the festival starts a day before and that's called Sajabaaja.Second day is the Shankranti day called Raja shankranti.The third day (day after shankranti) is called the Sesha raja.

For these three days mother earth is considered to be menstrating as ...

2/n

this symbolizes the fertility. That's why for all three days of Raja soil is treated with utmost gentleness. All the agricultural works remain suspended. No one walks upon soil, that's why swings are prepared. Young girls are treated as symbolic representative of earth.

Simplicity and good sense of humour prevails in the talk of 21 mins of pure gold

"Ministers are more interested in redefinition of poverty line - instead of eliminating poverty" - he quips

2/n

1. Subsidies given to people are only reinforcing poverty - creating unemployment

2. Every year hundred thousand tonnes of food gets spoiled - for want of better storage

3. Food security = Food availability + accessibility + acceptability + nutritive value - 1996 UN conf.

3/n

4. 43% of the children below 5 yrs lack access to nutritive food - growth is retarded

5. Food security is in the soil - 2000 years back our forefathers said - Soil + water = food - It doesn't need university education

@bigfundu

I was surprised to see an article from DW.com regarding the #savesoil movement that casts doubts over the movement.

dw.com/en/india-doubt…

Here is an attempt to bust the lies and half-truths in that article.

These are a few key points from the article that I thought are important to address upfront.

(1) Onus is on people to pressure governments
(2) Can contribute only if they are tied to institutional arrangements
(3) Ends up weakening India’s environmental regulatory framework

(4) The movement is a “dangerous distraction” from the climate-saving work being done by grassroots activists

Some of these sound serious. But first, let us ask ourselves some questions and if the answer to any of them is a YES, then there is at least a basic premise for panic.

@MihirUj

While we focus on creating more meat products, the world faces crisis due to the pollution caused by our abrupt growth of such resources.

human need of actual grain, wheat, vegetables, water, air is way low to affect the climate.

But the industries, of all kind, including bio-industries have not only become insane slaughterhouse but the primary source of all hazardous waste materials and carbon footprints

While we talk about new 5G and electric cars.
We are losing soil, water and air for survival. Coming decades would only bring more miseries, more of pandemics, wildfires and floods.

#TumburaTeertham ప్రకృతి ఒడిలో నిఘూడ వైవిద్యం.. తుంబర తీర్ధం....
#తిరుమలలో ఘనంగా కుమారధార తీర్థ ముక్కోటి

శేషాచల అడవుల్లో ఉన్న తుంబుర తీర్థం భక్తులకు ఆధ్యాత్మిక క్షేత్రమే కాదు.. ప్రకృతి రమణీయతకు పెట్టింది పేరు.

ట్రెక్కింగ్ వంటి సాహస యాత్రలకు స్వర్గధామం. కొండలు, కోనలు, రాళ్లు రప్పలు దాటుకుని.. తుంబుర క్షేత్రం సందర్శించడం నిజంగా థ్రిల్లింగే.

శేషాచలం అటవీ ప్రాంతంలోని తిరుమల కొండల్లో దాగి ఉన్న ప్రకృతి ప్రసాదించిన సుందరదృశ్యం తుంబుర తీర్థం.

ఆదిమ మానవులు సంచరించినట్టు, నివాసమున్నట్టు ఆధారాలున్న ప్రాంతం ఇది. ట్రెక్కర్లు, సాహసికులు, అన్వేషకులు ఇక్కడకు వెళ్లేందుకు ఆసక్తి చూపిస్తారు. జలనిక్షేపాలకు ఆలవాలం ఈ ప్రాంత పరిసరాలు. మండు వేసవిలో పరవళ్లుతొక్కే నీటి అందాలను ఆస్వాదించాలంటే ఈ ప్రాంతాన్ని తప్పక దర్శించాలి .

There is a complete meltdown of the #left ecosystem in India with @SadhguruJV appearing on @Trevornoah's @TheDailyShow, talking about the #SaveSoil movement. The outpouring of hate for the man is weird to see and yet completely believable given the history of the Indian left.

It is hilarious to see many of them complaining about Trevor hosting Sadhguru and in the same breath speaking about the freedom of expression of individuals and how the left ecosystem is for providing equal opportunity to hear all voices.

And many of them claim to have a genuine concern for the environment as well. If you did not get the irony yet, you seriously need a college course in "Irony 101" :)
