Rain, wind, or ice can move things like dirt and small rocks (sediment) from one place to another.
Sediment – pieces of soil or rock that get moved around by erosion.
Whoa! That water’s carrying all the dirt downhill."

Do you see those trees cut down? When people cut down trees (deforestation), it accelerates erosion because there are no roots to hold the soil in place.
If we keep cutting trees, won’t the ground wash away?
"Exactly! Trees help keep the soil in place, so when they’re gone, it’s easier for the ground to get washed away.

The rain washed away my topsoil—I can’t plant now and Our house is sinking near that crack
Omg, I didn't know it was that bad. Does the weather also affect it?
Did you know erosion can ruin farmland, damage homes, and even make rivers dirty

Yes, the weather can make it worse. Climate change brings stronger storms and more floods, which can speed up erosion.
This storm is way worse than last year—it’s washing everything away! Is there a way to help or slow it down?
Slide: 6
There is a way to help. We can help by planting trees, adding rocks, and protecting the land.
