New atlas illustrates global soil biodiversity and threats to soil organisms


The Joint Research Centre (JRC) of the European Commission's Science and Knowledge Service publishes the first-ever Global Soil Biodiversity Atlas that maps the soil biodiversity of the entire planet. This unique Atlas pays tribute to soil –  the silent engine that keeps the planet alive – by providing a detailed analysis of soil organisms and the threats to soil biodiversity at global scale.  The Atlas will be launched by the JRC at the 2nd UN Environment Assembly (UNEA) in Nairobi on 25 May.
