Sadhguru told the media before setting off on his bike tour, ”It’s extremely important that we act now. I’ve been talking about this for over 24 years, but solution can only happen when there is positive policy in every nation.”
He added, ”It is still snowing in many parts of Europe and we’ll be going through that on a two-wheeler. At this age, it’s not really a joy ride. So why am I doing this? Because over 300,000 farmers have committed suicide in the last 20 years. Not just in India, across the world this is happening one of the main concerns is soil depletion.”

According to Jagadish Vasudev weel known as Sadhguru stated at the University of Birmingham last week, ”No matter how much wealth, education, and money we have, our children cannot live well unless we restore the soil and water. Conscious Planet is the only way forward. ”
The Save Soil campaign intends to motivate at least 3.5 billion people, or 60% of the global electorate, to support long-term government policies that would revitalise the soil and reverse its loss.
