Sustainable environments
Environmental change is leading to an increase in the frequency and magnitude of high temperature and rainfall events in many regions of the world, and an increase in the intensity of tropical cyclones.
The costs and benefits associated with resource extraction are too frequently inequitable and unsustainable, with consequences for people and the environment at multiple scales.
Other anthropogenic pressures arise from population change, migration, and control over the land and sea for food and fisheries.
Our research identifies the opportunities and challenges connected to natural environments, and considers how different people share the risks, benefits, costs and control over the outcomes that emerge from interactions between humans and the environment.
