Soils for Society Conference

This Symposium will focus solely on soils, their importance and protection, as a non-renewable natural resource and as natural capital that underpins all land-based ecosystem services our society benefits from. In Ireland there is a need for more appreciation of the fact that soils do not only provide food but also many other ecosystem services for society, including water regulation, carbon storage, as a habitat of biodiversity, as a platform for infrastructure, and as an archive of our archaeological history.
