We were initially joined by 506 more global change researchers from more than 40 countries in endorsing the Scientific Consensus on Maintaining Humanity's Life Support Systems in the 21st Century: Information for Policy Makers, a number that has now grown to more than 3700 people from 89 countries (as of 2018).
We're trying to communicate what we've learned in the course of working on global-change issues over decades of hands-on research and teaching in our field sites, laboratories, and classrooms. We're trying to reach outside the Ivory Tower to give information to the people who most need to know: you, your friends, and your leaders.
This website ConsensusForAction is administered by A. D. Barnosky and E. A. Hadly and is hosted at Stanford University.
