The issue of land and soil quality rarely takes center stage when discussing ecological transition. Yet, in the European Union alone, urbanization, desertification, erosion, and soil sealing lead to the loss of tens of thousands of square kilometers of productive land each year. Not to mention the further damage caused by intensive farming and groundwater pollution. But when and how did this all start? What are the health risks when the soil is under threat? And what solutions are currently available? We attempt to answer these questions in the second episode of Mission Earth, traveling through the “Terre dei Fuochi” (Land of Fires) in Campania and Veneto, with a stop in Chile.
MISSION EARTH
di Angelica De Vito, con la collaborazione di Luciano Canova
A podcast produced in partnership with NatPower
Sustainability is a complex challenge. The United Nations’ 2030 Agenda, in setting the 17 Sustainable Development Goals, has established that sustainability is not just an environmental issue, but also a social and economic one. This integrated vision is what must guide us toward changing our development model. A path to be taken together, as a community, because individual actions, while important, are not sufficient without an adequate institutional and legal framework.
Mission Earth is a 5-part journey through the facts, themes, myths, and virtuous practices of the ecological transition we are experiencing.
