Describe two ways that climate change can degrade soil in 3-4 sentences.

The two ways that climate change can degrade soil are due to carbon dioxide content in soil and its effect on the ecosystem.

Explanation:

When the concentration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere increases the organisms such as microbes in the soil break down the organic matter and causes even more increase in the carbon dioxide content. This leads to the release of greenhouse gases which further releases a large amount of methane which is harmful.  

Secondly, there should always be a balance between the soil and the climate otherwise it would affect the natural and semi-natural ecosystems. When there are changes in the distribution of water to the plants it affects the hydro-logical cycle. Thus, climate change will naturally lead to changes in the functions of soil and degradation occurs.
