Well one reason is because the map you posted excludes most of the Norwegian controlled oil & gas resources, which lie to the north of where your map ends. I’m sure a perfectly innocent cropping of reality… Please feel free to retweet this one.

In all my 60 years, I can’t remember having 4” rain within a 24hr period.
Shallow cultivations have washed, deep ones seem to be ok. Neighbour has spuds washed out onto the road!

Today is #WorldSoilDay.
In Europe, in less than a decade, the area of land at risk of desertification has increased by the equivalent of the size of Greece and Slovakia combined.
🌱Our #MissionSoil leads the transition towards healthy soils and aims to reduce desertification ↓

Soil biodiversity is a nature-based solution to many of the global challenges facing humanity.
Yet, it is threatened by unsustainable soil management practices, erosion, pollution, urbanization & more.
