"Joint UNESCO-IUGS International Geoscience Programme publishes brochure titled "Soil - Earth’s living skin" , in which it outlines the enormous importance of and threats to this key natural resource. The text is part of the International Year of the Earth. See Professor Roel Merckx's Year of the Earth lecture on "Living off the land in Africa: myths and realities" in which he sketches the crude fact that development in Africa will only happen when the continent's nutrient-poor soils are replenished and made fertile"
