With almost 30% of U.S. cropland eroding above soil tolerance levels \u2013 meaning the long-term ability of the soil to sustain plant growth is in jeopardy \u2013 President Roosevelt\u2019s words ring as true today as in 1937. FDR was responding to the devastation wrought by the Dust Bowl during the Great Depression. Today, severe drought conditions are all too common, as are extreme storms.<\/p>\n

Afortunadamente, tenemos una soluci\u00f3n bastante sencilla: enmendar el suelo con compost.<\/p>\n

Mejorar la capacidad del suelo para retener agua, ralentizar la escorrent\u00eda pluvial y resistir la erosi\u00f3n es vital para la vida en este planeta tal como la conocemos. Por eso celebramos la salud del suelo este D\u00eda de la Tierra.<\/p>\n

Resulta que el compostaje tambi\u00e9n puede salvarnos de otras maneras. Restos de comida, hojas y otros materiales org\u00e1nicos pueden transformarse en compost. Cuando se entierran o queman, estos materiales producen potentes gases de efecto invernadero y otros contaminantes. Algunas estimaciones indican que la p\u00e9rdida y el desperdicio de alimentos a nivel mundial contribuyen al 8% de todas las emisiones de gases de efecto invernadero creadas por el hombre. Cuando se convierte en compost y se a\u00f1ade al suelo, los residuos de alimentos secuestran carbono. Mucho carbono. Al mismo tiempo, en una base por tonelada, el compostaje genera muchos m\u00e1s empleos que los vertederos o las incineradoras.<\/p>\n

En honor al D\u00eda de la Tierra 2017, estamos lanzando serie de p\u00f3steres<\/a> para destacar los innumerables beneficios del compostaje. \u00a1Comparte, descarga y usa! (Lo publicamos bajo Creative Commons con atribuci\u00f3n).<\/p>\n

Tambi\u00e9n estamos compartiendo recursos que pueden ayudar a educar a tu vecindario sobre c\u00f3mo el compostaje construye riqueza comunitaria:<\/h3>\n
