This wiki is a companion to the Science for Sustainability facebook group.

Our life on Earth is in danger, from Climate change and other threats.

We know this because science has been studying our planet and its ecosystems in increasing depth for over a century.

Science is also investigating how we can tackle the problems we face using the technologies we have now and those we can reasonably develop quickly enough to be useful.

Tackling the issues we face also involves challenges in psychology, economics and politics. Finding effective approaches to these issues is a significant challenge.


This site aims to provide reliable sources for the science on issues related to the sustainability of life on Earth.

At present it comprises these pages (names in italics are redirects to other pages):

Most pages are currently just collections of links on a subject. Collaborators interested in developing this resource would be welcome: please email HelpImprove@scienceforsustainability.org
