	abstract = {Soil protection policies have been developed at National level in a number of
		countries. The US Soil Conservation Act, the German Federal Soil Protection Act, and the
		Soil Action Plan for England are just some examples of such policies. International policies
		for a sustainable use of soil resources have been developed both at regional level and at
		global level. The Alpine Convention and the upcoming EU Thematic Strategy for Soil
		Protection are two examples of regional policies addressing soil protection. No specific
		binding global policy exists for soil protection. Nevertheless, a number of environmental
		protection policies address soil-protection aspects, like the climate-change convention, the
		biodiversity convention and the desertification convention. Further development of the
		EU Thematic Strategy for Soil Protection will make it possible to explore new methods of
		international cooperation in this field.
