It is still snowing in many parts of Europe and we’ll be going through that on a two-wheeler. At this age, it’s not really a joy ride. So why am I doing this? Because over 300,000 farmers have committed suicide in the last 20 years. Not just in India, across the world this is happening one of the main concerns is soil depletion, he adds.

The Save Soil Movement, launched as part of the spiritual leader’s Conscious Planet initiative, is aimed at turning the world’s attention towards dying soil and growing desertification. The focus is on getting countries to institute national policies towards increasing the organic content in cultivable soil.

Whether on the cricket field or on the field of life, if we are to play well, the soil has to be well. Time to come together and turn things around. Let’s make it happen, he said. 

The Save Soil campaign aims to inspire at least 3.5 billion people, or 60 percent of the world’s electorate, to support long-term government policies to revitalize the soil and reverse its depletion.
