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 organisations that fund, carry out and use environmental research and observations have joined forces to address this urgent situation. Living With Environmental Change is a ten-year partnership, 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 partnership
