The interactions between environmental change and human societies have a long, complex history spanning many millennia, but these have changed fundamentally in the last century.

It considers the consequences of these changes with respect to the stability of the Earth System and the well-being of humankind, as well as exploring future paths towards Earth System science in support of global sustainability.
