In: USES 2014 - The University of Sheffield Engineering Symposium, 24 June 2014, The Octagon Centre, University of Sheffield.
Abstract
Global soils are under intense pressure from the demographic drivers of increasing human population and
wealth. During the next 40 years Earth’s human population is project to approach 10 billion with a quadrupling
in the global economy, a doubling in the demand for food, a doubling in the demand for fuel, and a more than
50% increase in the demand for clean water. Can Earth’s soils keep up?
