Biodiversity and climate of the earth are often by the affected by the activities of the humans. But now in the new geologic time the soil under the humans feet is also being affected. The scientists have declared that the human society is entering an Anthropocene age.
Famous soil analyst says that the soil present all over the world has started to show reduced capacity to support biodiversity and agricultural growth. As the damaged and depleted soil increase in their amount there will be defeat to the global water, carbon, and nitrogen. Since about 50 percentage of the worlds soil is under the direct management of the human society.
This global in the soil promotes less support to farming, plant, and animal diversity. This problem is very serious in the countries of Africa and Asia. The ability to store the carbon in the soil is reduced by this damaged soils. Cow dung burnt for cooking, bricks built by the top soil and the nutrient depletion by the farming process have a rebound global effect.
So a new geological period is required to save the global soil from the harmful effects of the humankind.
