摘要 | Soil is the basis of all economic and cultural activities; however, this "fundamental" economic value of soil is barely recognised. As part of a project for the European Commission, Ecologic and the French Geological Survey (BRGM) will therefore estimate the economic consequences that the continued degradation of European soils implies. In the past, soil protection has not been a specific policy area in the EU. The creation of a community “Thematic Strategy for Soil Protection” by 2004, as foreseen in the 6th Environment Action Programme, will change this situation. In April 2002, the European Commission published a communication “Towards a Thematic Strategy for Soil Protection”. The communication outlines the scope of such a strategy and is the first commission document that deals comprehensively with soil protection. The major threats for soil identified in the communication are erosion, decline in organic matter, contamination, sealing, compaction, biodiversity decline, salinisation, floods and landslides. The activities of the strategy will gather policy relevant information in the first place and then address human activities. Core elements will be a proposal for a piece of soil monitoring legislation and a communication on soil erosion, soil organic matter loss and soil contamination. It can be assumed that the soil monitoring legislation to be proposed by 2004 will only be the initial basis for a community soil policy and more legislation in this area might be expected as it is the case for other policy areas. The results of the project can be downloaded in four separate volumes:
