The Movement to Save Soil is a global movement initiated by Sadhguru, to prevent soil extinction. It aims to urge and support governments in formulating policies that will address soil health in their country and halt and reverse soil degradation. On 21 March, Sadhguru embarked on a lone motorcycle journey of 30,000 km that will cover 27 nations in 100 days to raise awareness about soil extinction and build global consensus for urgent action to prevent soil extinction. His journey, which began in London, will culminate in the Cauvery river basin where Sadhguru has initiated the ambitious Cauvery Calling project to revitalize river Cauvery and restore soil health in the region.
