How can the earth support a projected population of 9 billion people in 2050? How do we balance the desire for a high quality of life with the preservation of ecological functions critical to our planet’s survival? This is a fundamental challenge that we must collectively address to achieve a sustainable global society. Success will require rethinking our systems for production and consumption of food, air, energy, water, transportation, and communications.
