Summary

The Anthropocene Epoch confronts humanity with unprecedented challenges. Meeting these challenges demands fundamentally different modes of thought, institutions, technologies, policies, values, and governance systems than those that propelled the Great Acceleration. Humanity is at a crossroads. With environmental stressors intensifying, and with the world population growing, we need integrated solutions across sectors to address today’s challenges and to reduce future risks to a minimum. The scale of change required is dramatic.
