Did you know that soil is home to 60% of all species on Earth?
Soil is vital for plant growth, supports biodiversity, filters water, and keeps ecosystems balanced. But in Kenya, worsening droughts have left the soil damaged and dry, threatening both nature and local communities.
In our 20th Planet Wild mission, we’re supporting a surprisingly simple method to help transform these barren lands into thriving ecosystems.
A special thanks to Dr. Rob Thompson / University of Reading for providing us with additional footage.
