Sustainable activities leads to healthy soil, environment and lives. High quality basic needs and nutritious food could be produce sustainably without negative consequence to our environment.

Regenerative Agriculture is a dynamic and holistic, incorporating permaculture and organic farming practices, including composting, no tillage, cover crops, mobile ranching, crop rotation, shelter and pasture cropping to increase food production, farmers’ income and quality topsoil.

Regenerative soil improvement and protection reduces water pollution by resisting erosion, increases income, nurture biodiversity, restore grassland, create drought resistant soil, improve nutrition, reverse climate change, decreases greenhouse gas emission, degrading or immobilizing agricultural chemicals, wastes, or other potential pollutants and creates a conducive environment.

Sustainable energy means eradicating greenhouse gas emissions from energy use in all sectors of the economy. It involves fundamental changes to how we generate electricity, transport people and goods, and heat and cool our buildings. It is power which is able to be replenished within a human lifetime and so cause no long-term damage to the environment. Sustainable energy includes all renewable energy sources, such as hydroelectricity, biomass, geothermal, wind, wave, tidal and solar energies.

 

Sustainable consumption and production is the use of services and products in respond to provision of basic needs, quest for a better quality of life while minimizing the use of natural resources and toxic materials as well as reducing emissions of waste and pollutants over the life cycle of the service or product so as not to jeopardize the needs of future generations.

All these sustainable activities will save our planet, make our environment safe, help to create healthy living and gives hope for a better future.

Agriculture is generally a tradition in Africa, where the economy and the livelihood of citizens depend on soil, water, air, plants and animals, and natural ecosystems. Agricultural production, by its very nature and African system of farming, the natural practices used had helped maintain quality soil and conducive environmental condition.

Of recent, as the major source of livelihood for Africans modernization caused a rise in chemical and mechanical based agriculture which consequently changed the way food is produced and consequently contributing environmental and climatic challenges. How ever, these practices have caused loss of quality soil by erosion, compaction, toxic residues in our food supply, salinization, loss of biological activity, loss of natural soil nutrients, loss of vegetation, to name a few. If these persist, it will pose a mortal threat to our future. The quality and supply of food will extremely drop and subsequently we will no longer have enough arable land topsoil to produce food for ourselves.

Despite all these obvious dangers, gladly, there are solutions to all these challenges and making our environment better. AFRIEARTH FOUNDATION has taken the responsibility as first of its kind in Nigeria to help promote sustainable practices that will enhance food security, increase farmers income, reduce poverty, improve soil health and biodiversity, help reduce climate change and promote vegetative growth across communities in Nigeria, and later replicating the Nigerian success worldwide.
