Welcome to DareWorld.org!!
All terrestrial life depends on the fragile, friable crust of soil that coats the continents. Without earth,
living things would never have emerged from the oceans; there would be no plants, no crops, no forests,
no animals and… no people. This precious covering, the very flesh of the planet, is painfully slow to form,
and can be destroyed terrifyingly fast. Just a single inch of soil can take centuries to build up but,
if mistreated, it can be blown and washed away in a few seasons. And earth is now rapidly vanishing all
over the planet that bears its name. Deforestation is one major cause of desertification; desertification
has played some part in sparking off at least 10 of the armed conflicts currently in progress in arid lands, according to UN sources.
