Article 12 (a)
|
avoiding or reducing as much as possible the loss of the capacity of the soil to provide multiple ecosystem services, including food production, by:
|
(i)
|
reducing, as much as possible, the area of soil affected by soil sealing and soil removal, in particular by encouraging the reuse and repurposing of sealed soils, such as existing buildings;
|
|
(ii)
|
selecting areas where the loss of ecosystem services would be minimal, in particular areas with severely degraded soils, such as brownfields; and
|
|
(iii)
|
carrying out the soil sealing and soil removal in a way that minimises the negative impact on soil, in particular by protecting the surrounding soils or by keeping the soil sealing as reversible as possible;
|
|
|
Article 12 (b)
|
aiming to offset to a reasonable extent the loss of the capacity of the soil to provide multiple ecosystem services, including through returning ecosystem services by encouraging the de-sealing of sealed soils and the reconstruction of areas that underwent soil removal.
