New journal article on converging global crises.
Our new journal article (open source) in Sustainability Science: "Confronting converging crises"
“the Earth’s climatic, ecological, and human systems are converging towards a crisis that threatens to engulf global civilization within the lifetimes of children now living.”

@petergleick A great read, and I completely agree we need to focus on adaptation as well as mitigation.
It inspires two questions for me:
1. Will more policymakers follow the EU's footsteps in applying revenue generating fiscal policy to redirect funds to places where they are needed most (e.g. under EU CBAM proposals), or will they continue to look inwardly (e.g. EU SCF)?
2. How can we better use a citizen science projects such as Zooniverse to close the data and analytics gaps you mention, crowdsourcing some of the response?
