Soil erosion causes land and water pollution. When the soil flows into water bodies, it affects the quality of the water, which in turn can also block out sunlight and cause underwater plants to die and fishes to starve. It also pollutes the land as crops may be destroyed, causing economic damage and buildings may be destroyed, resulting in casualties.
Sheet Erosion: Sheet erosion is the removal of fairly uniform layer of surface of soil by the action of rainfall and runoff water. This type of erosion, though extremely harmful to the land. It is common on lands having a gentle or land slope. Movement of soil by rain drop splash is the primary cause of sheet erosion.
Rill Erosion: Rill erosion is the removal of surface soil by running water, with the formation of narrow shallow channels that can be leveled or smoothed out completely by normal cultivation.
Gully Erosion: Gully erosion is the elimination of soil by running water. Gully erosion is an advanced stage of rill erosion. Unattended rills get deepened and widened every year and begin to attain the form of gullies. Gully erosion is more spectacular and therefore more noticeable than any other erosion.
An advantage of soil erosion is that it slows down the Greenhouse Affect... when soil erodes it carries with it carbon, a noted greenhouse element, and deposits it in nearby wetland areas.
There are a number of effects that soil erosion can have that may be good. Soil erosion cleans a space of unwanted chemicals for example.
the positive effects of soil ersion is that fresh soil is scattered over dead areas creating fertile lands

One of the main advantages of soil erosion is that it helps fight global warming. when soil erodes it takes carbon with it and carries it to wetland areas. The wetland areas then store the carbon for very long periods of time.

It's the other way around. Erosion takes soil away and removes it. Erosion is bad for the soil. The more erosion there is, the less soil there is.
No, soil erosion is a global issue
Erosion is the result of natural disasters such as landslides. When there is Soil Erosion in that given part of the soil, the soil's topsoil is very thin or washed away. When there is Soil Erosion, the soil will be not good to be planted with. Sometimes Soil Erosion can be good too in means of adding topsoil to the other parts of the soil that has less or no more topsoil.
Terrace farming helped prevent soil erosion by reducing water runoff, allowed for agriculture on steep slopes, and conserved water by capturing and distributing it evenly across the terraces. It also increased agricultural productivity by creating more arable land in hilly or mountainous regions.

how does a person cause a soil erosion
Less forests mean less oxygen produced. Also more of a chance of soil erosion because there are no roots to hold the soil in place.

no,soil cannot grow in such soil erosion because soil erosion damages the upper fertile layer of soil which caries away the fertility of soil and take humus from it

soil erosion on hill sloppes can be checked by
Yes its the same thing.
