The current human economic system is having a critical impact on the Earth’s climate, and thus the sustainability of the planet to support human endeavors and the natural biosphere. In the talk, Dr. Schlesinger will review the major anticipated impacts of climate change on the Earth’s system and outline some potential avenues that can guide us to the future.
