Document: The aim of the article is to develop and explore the idea that soil health is an essential element in combating climate change and promoting food security. An important aspect of this is that soil, rather than simply serving to support plants and as a niche for animals and microbes, also functions as a natural reactor that, through a series of chemical and biological reactions, purifies water, replenish aquifers and maintains equilibria in surface waters.
