Transforming to a Safe Operating Space: The Imperative for Global Scientific Collaboration

The need for global sustainability has never been greater. This expert meeting emphasizes that addressing pressing questions related to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) requires a profound transformation. Key areas for change include an energy revolution to reduce CO2 emissions significantly, a food system overhaul to increase production sustainably, the management of urban living for a growing population, and enhanced biodiversity protection. Collaborative global governance and adaptive innovation are essential for navigating the challenges of our changing planet.
