What is Human Impact on Soil Erosion about?

This document discusses soil erosion and the factors that can increase its rate. It identifies several human activities that leave soil exposed like farming, overgrazing, deforestation, mining, development, and off-road recreation. These activities can degrade the soil and remove protective plant cover, allowing wind and water to more easily erode the soil. Cover crops, rotating crops, controlled grazing, replanting trees, and considering natural defenses during development can help reduce erosion.
