But in some cases, human activities are the ones causing soil erosion, especially during farming and land clearing, leaving soil vulnerable to erosion. ]]> 2023-02-23 05:49:07 UTC https://padlet.com/deadlackcorporation/h3av1j82rk7uqzsh/wish/2492114672 5045912 https://padlet.com/deadlackcorporation/h3av1j82rk7uqzsh/wish/2492117216 Soil erosion could lead to the increase of landslides and flooding caused by no soil available to prevent. Soil erosion also adds to the pollution of watercourses, wetlands and lakes, which might affect the ecosystem of animals. 
It will harm the metabolism of microorganisms, leading to the destruction of the primary food chains. The toxic chemicals released will also harm us and might lead to cancer and respiratory disease.  ]]> 2023-02-23 05:53:32 UTC https://padlet.com/deadlackcorporation/h3av1j82rk7uqzsh/wish/2492117216 381197 https://padlet.com/deadlackcorporation/h3av1j82rk7uqzsh/wish/2492117710
  • Do not overuse land, use land according to its capability. 
  • Protect the soil surface with some form of cover. 
  • Control runoff before it develops into an erosive force.

  • For areas with light erosion problems, replanting with vegetation and covering the area with mulch are one of the better solutions.  
  • For soil erosion along roads, we can cover the road with mulch or stones. 
  • For heavy erosion in areas of concentrated flow, the most effective solutions are to check dams or terraces. 
  • Planting more trees, the roots of trees and plants will hold the soil and prevent it from sloping.

It also sends soil-laden water downstream, which can create heavy layers of sediment that prevent streams and rivers from flowing smoothly and can eventually lead to flooding
