95 percent of the earth's surface could be degraded by 2050

Alarming state of the world's soil, livelihoods threatened

The maps, produced by Save Soil using data from the UNCCD (2019 map) and an estimate from the Global Environment Facility (GEF, 2050 map), show how much fertile land could be left in 2050 if the current rate of degradation continues. The resulting food crisis would be exacerbated by the fact that the world's population is expected to rise to 9.8 billion people by 2050, according to figures from the United Nations (UN).
