Soil Pollution

Soil is the foundation of all life on Earth, it grows our food, cleans our water, and shelters billions of living organisms in every handful. But right now, over 5 million sites across the world sit on land poisoned by heavy metals, pesticides, and industrial chemicals. Every year, exposure to contaminated soil contributes to more than 500,000 premature deaths and most of it goes unseen and unreported. Children are hit the hardest, absorbing toxins faster than adults simply because they live, breathe, and play closest to the ground. #SoilPollution, #EnvironmentalHealth, #ClimateAction, #ZeroPollution, #SoilHealth, #publichealth #soilpollution Sources and Credits 1 .Soil Pollution and Health European Environment Agency (EEA) · Zero Pollution Assessment. 2 .Global Assessment of Soil Pollution United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) · FAO, 2021. 3 .Soil Contamination — Topic Overview ScienceDirect · Agricultural & Biological Sciences. 4 .Soil Pollution: A Hidden Reality MDPI Sustainability · Vol. 14, Issue 23, 2022. 5 .Soil Contamination — Research Starter EBSCO · Environmental Sciences Reference. #subscribe , #comment and #share Green radio 📻
