Living With Environmental Change
Our planet faces unprecedented change. If we continue on our current path, by the end of this century, or earlier, our environment will be in a state that modern humans have never experienced.
The UK's main funders of environmental research have joined forces to address this urgent situation. Living With Environmental Change is a ten-year programme, which will provide decision makers with the best information to effectively manage and protect vital ecosystem services. It will improve our tools and knowledge needed to build resilience, mitigate problems, and adapt to environmental change. More about the LWEC programme
