綠化地球恢復生態系統不僅會產生生態利潤,還會產生經濟利益,對自然受益,為人類帶來金錢、工作和希望進而帶動經濟增長。
幾十年來,我們在全世界失去了大片可耕地,而可耕地本身也在失去肥力,這是由於土地用途的改變、伐木、刀耕火種和有害的耕作方法,導致侵蝕並耗盡土壤,但農業也可以在扭轉土壤退化方面發揮作用,這有利於生物多樣性和自然性,也有利於受影響地區的經濟和人民的生活。
For decades now, we’ve been losing vast tracts of arable land worldwide – and the arable land itself has been losing its fertility. This is due to land repurposing, logging, slash-and-burn farming and harmful farming methods that promote erosion and deplete the soil. But agriculture can also play a part in reversing soil degradation. This benefits biodiversity and nature, but also the economy and the lives of people in affected areas.
